in thread MS-DOS search using globs

In reponse to dog and pony's suggestion to add:
&dir; &name; &ext;
Note that calling subs via '&' will pass @_ to the sub. If you don't want this behavior, I recommend using something more like:

dir(); name(); ext();  #instead

Not that he's wrong.. :) Just my two cents. Once bread becomes toast, it can never be bread again.
