Hi stevieb, you can move (rename) directories with File::Copy:

#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; use File::Copy 'mv'; mkdir( 'Project/src' ) or die $!; mv('Project/lib', 'Project/src/lib' ) or die $!; mv('Project/t', 'Project/src/apps' ) or die $!; __END__

The way forward always starts with a minimal test.
