Hi Dan Guessing:
Unless there is a fixed limit, which I don't think there is, I imagine identifiers are held inside Perl as a C string, which is null-terminated and therefore of any length supportable by the hardware. I doubt if it will cause you problems. Is this of real concern to you? Are you writing a Perl generator or something? Cheers, Rob "Dan Muey" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... Anybody happen to know off the top of their head what the max length of characters is that a hash's name can be? EG :: %123456789 = (); is a nine charcter name %joe_mama_said_to_tell_you_hi = (); is a 28 character name etc..
