Ok, I have a script that kind of works for what i want to do, but i know there's a better way to do this so seeking some help. 
my @files = ('abc*.txt','efg*.txt','xyz*.txt');

     my @a = $ftp->ls($files[0]);
     my @b = $ftp->ls($files[1]);
     my @c = $ftp->ls($files[2]);
     
     if (@a && @b && @c){
         print "file is not missing";
     }

     else{
         print "File X is missing";
     }

So the above will check an FTP site for 3 separate filemasks. I'd like to improve it to where if any one of the files is missing it prints the missing file.
