Whenever you find a directory, remember it to be deleted afterwards?

my @to_be_deleted; File::Find( ..., sub { if( -d $File::Find::name ) { print "'$File::Find::name' should be deleted later\n"; # push @to_be_deleted, $File::Find::name; }; }; rmdir @to_be_deleted; # boom

    great thanks much!... Follow-up to this, I hope you could also help me below: How about using Find::File to copy the subfolder + filename to another folder. Like: DIR_A/SUB_A/FILE_A ----> DIR_B/SUB_A/FILE_A Appreciate much your inputs.

        Yes. I did try File::Copy::Recursive & use dircopy(). But i just get:

        Undefined subroutine &main::dircopy called

        there was no issue in installing the module, it was successful
