Hi, I am trying to create a list (.txt file) of files under each subdirectory, for all subdirectories inside a main dir eg - 
./rootdir
./rootdir/folder1 has files file1.txt, file2.txt,file3.txt..etc

[download]
another sub-folder 
./rootdir/folder2 has  files file1.txt, file2.txt,file3.txt..etc too

[download]
My script should create a list of files inside each subfolder, with path to all files corresponding to that subfolder like - 
./rootdir/folder1/List1.txt
 
./rootdir/folder2/List2.txt

[download]
My code is not generating any file in the subfolders, can someone please point out the error EDITED code - Now my code is generating files in within each subdirectory, But the array (@subdirs) creates a key for the main directory (here ./rootdir) as well. How can I ignore reading this directory in array and just read the subdirectories using File::Find 

use strict;
use warnings;

use File::Find::Rule;
my $directory = './rootdir';

my @subdirs = File::Find::Rule->directory->in( $directory );

foreach my $dir (@subdirs) {
        #print "$dir\n";
        next if ($dir eq "..");

       if (-d $dir)
        {

        my $curr_dir = $dir;
        open (my $OUTFILE, '>>', "$curr_dir/List.txt") or die "Cant op
+en '$dir.txt!'  $!";
       
        my @files = File::Find::Rule->file() ->name( '*.*' ) -> in( $d
+ir);

        foreach $_ (@files)
                {
                 print $OUTFILE "$_\n";
                }
        close $OUTFILE;
        }

        }

}
