Re: Directory Listing to array

See readdir, it returns a list.

my @standir = grep {! /^\./} readdir(DIR);

But perhaps glob is more what you want. It will ignore dotfiles.

Actually `while (my $file = readdir DIR) { print "$file\n" }` will happily iterate over readdir. Try it. Also your grep solution will skip files like: `. .. .bashrc .any_other_unix_style_hidden_file/dir` [download] cheers tachyon s&&rsenoyhcatreve&&&s&n.+t&"$'$`$\"$\&"&ee&&y&srve&&d&&print	[reply] [d/l]
