Hi,

 It's a HASH - code structure similar to array where you use as index string
(and not number). Value of elements in hash are arrays

so for example:

 FILES['some_other_file.html'] will giv you back array:

   ['other text', 'And even more text']

 Cheers,

  V.

P.S. Google: Ruby pragmatic programmer and find hash section
