[lug] Perl question (off os)

[Atkinson, Chip]

Thanks.  The warning text indicates that I should use 'a' => 'abc', but what
really puzzles me is that for m, q, s, x, and y, I get the warnings, but I
don't get the warnings for a, r, and z. I can just put apostrophe's around
the hash keys, but it's kind of puzzling just the same.

You probably want either:

	$a => 'Abc',

or

	'a' => 'Abc',

The warnings indicate Perl was doing the latter.
