the code's already been posted, and the other solutions are obviously better, but i wanted to do more useless one-lining...

#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w use strict; use File::Find; find { wanted => sub {print if /\.pm$/}, no_chdir=>1} $dir foreach my +$dir (@INC);
hmmm, there are probably subdirectories in @INC that we've already searched since it recursively goes through the directories. Which would be faster: a search through all the directories using find or a prune using a hash to not re-search directories we've been through? The following is untested (ok, so was the above code), but it's an example...

# same guidelines as above, use strict and that ilk my %been_at; sub wanted { return if $been_at{$dir}; $been_at{$dir} = 1; print if /\.pm$/; } find { wanted => \&wanted, no_chdir => 1 } $dir foreach my $dir (@INC) +;
So the question i now have is would it be faster to make a hash or recurse possibly the same directories? i don't think this example is a significantly large enough search space to make much of a difference, but if it were would the latter method be faster? i think so but maybe someone can point out something i'm missing...


Also while i'm at it, is no_chdir a hit to performance when recursing directories? Is it better to allow it to change directories? Please comment, i'm still new to File::Find.
