Hi guys (gals implicitly included),

I am a quick question that I have been unable to find an answer to via google or the cookbook.

I am using Config::Auto which appears to return a reference to an anonymous hash. 
my $SETS = Config::Auto::parse( '/path/file.conf' );
print Dumper( $SETS );

$VAR = {
   'entryA' => { anonymous hash }
   'entryB' => { anonymous hash }
   };

I want to modify this to read multiple config files as follows: 
my @files = </path/to/files/*>;
my $SETS = Config::Auto::parse( $_ ) foreach @files;

[download]
Obviously only the last entry ends up in $SETS. Is there an elegant way to achieve the above. There seems to be plenty of documentation on how to achieve this for hashes, arrays, or even arrays of references but just not the above. (It is also quite possible that I do not really understand what exactly I am dealing with as I am not really a programmer.)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Patrick
