lux in latin means 'light' right? :) let me enlighten then :-P
foo ($hash = array('var1'=>'value', 'var2'=>'value'));
should work.
Now, I don't undestand why exactly do you need references. By default
everything is passed in a referenced manner, if I undestood correct the
explanation Zeev wrote right after 4.0 was out, or so.
Don't take references like something that will boost your skript speed
to 200%.
Use them only when you need them, and to find out when you actually need
them
check out an article on references at zend.com.
Now, let me tell you that somehow I agreed with you :) cause I love
Python way
of dealing with arrays, but we are in PHP, so we have to figure PHP way,
not
<your-fav-lang> way.
