in thread Perl List files in directory

O.K., you'd have to change '.' from my snippet to '/opt' or '/opt/tmp' or $dir to work it on other than current dir. Whether you use File::Find or File::Find::Rule is more a matter of taste. The maintainer of the module describes it as a is a friendlier interface to File::Find :-).

    But where is the @files? :)

    :) Hmm, @files? There is nothing like @files in File::Find docs ... OTOH File::Find::Rules shows a @files

    Its more than a matter of taste, File::Find::Rules is much much more memorable ... and friendly to noobs

    File::Find::Rules is like cake (sweet), where File::Find is like raw flour
