That will include '.' and '..' in the list. I have seen a pattern that will leave those out but it is messy. It is simpler to filter them out. `my @files = grep { /^\.\.?$/ } bsd_glob( "{.,}" );` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

System directories '.' and '..' can be ignored just by using file test flag '-f': my @files = grep { -f } bsd_glob( "{.,}" );	[reply]
