Much more elegant than mine, but by looking at the output, it's still not
quite right.  Note that there really is no -m option.

Since this was getting me no where and I have a deadline looming (although
I'm still trying to get a handle on multihashes), I've taken another, more
successful tact.  I'm using Sudarshan Raghavan's suggestion of GetOpt::Std -
which I had actually attempted FIRST, with no luck... until Sudarshan's
of using local @ARGV and split.  

Now, I'm a happy camper and may actually meet my deadline.  

I'm still not very comfy with contructing a datastructure for a multilevel
hash, but it's more a matter of getting in more perl practice than I've been
able to have, I think.  In other words, keep on trucking...!

Thanks to everyone who offered their expertise.
