Just to check my understanding and that i'm learning this rite . :-)



while(<HD>){
    next if /^\s*#|^\s*;/;         .... ignors any lines with # and ;
    next if /^\s*$/;                .... ignores lines that start with a
space ..

    my @array = split/\s+/;    ... puts each value seperated by a space
into an array
    my $key = shift @array;   .... gets the first value, of the array and
sets key to this value

    $hash{$key} = [EMAIL PROTECTED] || 'nodefined';  ... sets the value of the 
hash
to the array ??
}
