Dear PerlMonks,
I'm using the module Search::VectorSpace to query a list of documents and return the relevant documents. the description given in the module is as follows:-

 use Search::VectorSpace;
        
        my @docs = ...;
        my $engine = Search::VectorSpace->new( docs =>\@docs, threshol
+d => .04);
        $engine->build_index();
        
        while ( my $query = <> ) {
                my %results = $engine->search( $query );
                print join "\n", keys %results;
[download]

I have given a list of documents:-

  $dr="C:\\Users\\Desktop\\collection2";
    opendir(DR, "$dr") || die "error" ;
    @docs=<DR>;
    @docs=readdir DR;
[download]

But the search is done only on the file names, but not the contents of the file. How do I search for something within the files of the given directory?
