This is a skeleton for implementing many filters on files in a directory.
Add your options and tests...
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;

my( $max_size , $min_size );

#parse args
for(@ARGV) {
    if( /^--max_size=(.*)/ ) { $max_size = int( $1 ) }
    if( /^--min_size=(.*)/ ) { $min_size = int( $1 ) }
}

# end prints with \n
$\ = "\n";

# open curent directory
opendir( DIR , "." );

# test directories one by one.
while( $_ = readdir( DIR ) ) {
    
    # drop "." and ".."
    next if /^\.\.?$/;
    
    # test for max length
    next if( $max_size and -s $_ > $max_size );

    # test for min length
    next if( $min_size and -s $_ < $min_size );
    
    print
}

# close...
closedir( DIR );
