in reply to Wildcard for key in hash lookup to skip over level

There aren't any wildcards, but you can get a similar effect as the one you stated like this:

my $fl=0; for my $k (keys %{$Pos_overlap{$s[5]}) { ++$fl if exists $Pos_overlap{$s[5]}{$k}{$s[2]}; } if ($fl) {

Not as nice as one would like, but it's the best I can offer at this time.
