Well, the title pretty much asks the question.
Let's say I have a hash like this:

<code> 

open FILE, "dir/filename.ext";
while (!eof(FILE)) {
$file = <FILE>;
@pairs = split(/&/, $file);
foreach $pair (@pairs) {
($user, $pass, $bgcolor, $fgcolor) = split(/:/, $pair);
$passwords{$fuser} = $fpass;
$bgcolors{$fuser} = $fbgcolor;
$fgcolors{$fuser} = $ffgcolor;
$usernames{$fuser} = $fuser;
}
}
<code>

Now how can I sort through these alphabetically and print them to the screen?
Thanks ahead of time. :-)
