Re: opening files after File::Find

Is there any way to get absolute paths of the files which are returned by the find command ?

When it doubt, read the documentation. In this case the POD embedded in File::Find, which reads, in part

$File::Find::name contains the complete pathname to the file.

Another option, if you're enamoured of the implicit variables and have a suitably recent version of `File::Find`, is that you can change the behaviour of `$_` to match that of $File::Find::name by using the `no_chdir` option. `find( { wanted => sub { print }, no_chdir => 1, }, @paths );` [download] --k.
