Hi,

I am trying to build a hash(ref) and while doing so I want to remove
any white space from strings such as "1280 x 1024". So I have

  my $record = {
    contributor  => $resolution,
   ....
  };

Perhaps I am trying to be too clever but I thought I could do

  my $record = {
    contributor  => $resolution =~ s/\s+//g,


But my value ends up as 2, the number of white space matches I guess.
Is this a question on context, scalar or list? Or is this sort of
assignment over-stretching things?

TIA,
Dp.
