I am Hans Dieter Pearcey. I can be reached at [EMAIL PROTECTED] My home page is http://www.theoscape.net/~hdp/ I'd like my PAUSE id to be HDP. I'm planning to contribute a few related modules; one sort of like IO::Scalar in reverse (Tie::Scalar::File -- "This looks like a scalar, but really, you're writing to a file"), one similar but with arrays instead (the difference being that Tie::Array::File splits on /(?<\\n)/), and a Tie::Hash::Dir module that uses them both to represent a portion of the filesystem as a hash. (i.e. if tied with "/foo/bar" as a base, $hash{baz} is /foo/bar/baz, whether that's a directory (and thus another Tie::Hash::Dir object) or a file (Tie::(Array|Scalar)::File)). hdp.
