Hi, I use the below code to move files from a specified directory as a command line argument to another directory, but this script fails when recursing into subdirectories. I guess we have tweak the $file =~ s/\//\\/; Can anybody hlp please? i have given the sample o/p below.

use strict;
use File::Find;
use warnings;
my @files = ();
my @dirs = @ARGV or die "Please supply a valid directory to search";
print "\n All contrib and keep Files within the specified directory will be moved recursively to D:\\jude-test \n"; find(\&move, @dirs);
print "\n Moving .contrib and .keep files to D:\\jude-test \n";
for my $file ( @files ) {
$file =~ s/\//\\/;
print "Moving $file to D:\\jude-test\n";
system("move $file D:\\jude-test");
}

print "\n";

sub move {
if(-f && m/\.(contrib|keep)$/) {
push @files, $File::Find::name;
}
}
O/P:
Moving f:\temp\ument.keep to D:\jude-test
1 file(s) moved.
Moving f:\temp\test/4Document.keep to D:\jude-test
The system cannot find the path specified.
