chomp removes $/ which is just LF, not CRLF. Yes, even on Windows. So chomp wouldn't fix appended CRLF, just appended LF.

use Data::Dumper; $Data::Dumper::Terse = 1; $Data::Dumper::Useqq = 1; print(Dumper($/)); # "\n" $_ = "abc\x0D\x0A"; print(Dumper($_)); # "abc\r\n" chomp; print(Dumper($_)); # "abc\r"

But readdir doesn't append CRLF or LF to the file names it returns. Not unless you have a broken perl.

>copy nul foo 1 file(s) copied. >copy nul bar 1 file(s) copied. >perl -e"opendir $dh, '.' or die; print readdir $dh" ...barfoo

Tested with Perl 5.6.0, 5.6.1, 5.8.0, 5.8.8 and 5.10.0.
