That really sucks.  I never quote my values unless they need quoting.  It
saves so many characters that otherwise just get in the way.  It seems rather
contrary to the Huffman coding principles that Larry is such a fan of.

Will you be able to use the dot operator like this?

   %hash.key

That would be better Huffman coding IMHO.
