in thread can't use certain hashnames when traversing a slightly complex hash

Yep, it's all good. I simplified the code and the hash while posting.

I'm always interested in the first entry of the files sub-hash. (The rest are forks of the original Github gist.)

Thanks for looking out :)

I'm always interested in the first entry of the files sub-hash. Hmmm... Again, and just for the record, the `'files'` sub-hash (or any hash) can be said to have a 'first' element if and only if it has exactly one element. The only true ordering in a hash (or associative array) is the association between key/value pairs.	[reply] [d/l]

Ohh ..I understand what you mean now!!! Seems github doesn't mentioned specifically whether or files will contain one or more entries. I've emailed them to find out....	[reply]
