In src/pmc/hash.pmc there is the todo item: /* * TODO current behaviour of $S0 = hsh['no_such_key'] in * PGE and possibly more code needs an empty STRING * (--leo) */ Unfortunately I don't know exactly what this todo item means. I *think* it means that more code should return an empty STRING when confronted with a non-existent hash key as this todo item appears more than once in the code. Leo: can you expand a bit more on this item?
