This works and I have a better understanding of hash files now. Originally I thought an item could be used as it's data (i.e. just the item without it's data). Is that even possible with a hash table? So, now if I want to use a hash table for just userhost, there needs to be something in the data field, like the screen name. Right? I.E.
Item | DATA
-------------------------------------------------
screenname1 screenname[12345678_12345678@1.2.3.4]
Anyone have any ideas for a simple lil' script to convert a HUGE text file to a hash table/file?
