I have a command-line download tool that extracts a list of filenames/urls upon which to operate. I added support to filter the list by accepting regex strings from --accept and --reject options. What I have works, but feels off because of the string eval. Is there another approach to this? 
GetOptions(
    'accept|a=s' => \my @accept,
    'reject|r=s' => \my @reject,
) or die "Error with options\n";

my @filter = map eval "sub { \$_[0] =~ /$_/ }", @accept;
push @filter, map eval "sub { \$_[0] !~ /$_/ }", @reject;

# my @input = ([url, filename], ...);
my @filtered = filter(@input);

sub filter {
    return unless @filter;
    return map $_->[0],
        grep { my $f = $_; all { $_->($f->[1]) } @filter } @_;
}
