Well, if not to CUFP, then at least post your wheel, broken or otherwise, in this thread. An important part of the learning process (and perhaps the hardest) is working through the criticism of your answer, but it may be the most rewarding in the long run.

Comparing your code with File::Find won't pick up on stylistic issues or preconceived notions that you may have and that will come back to bite you later on. Many good coding techniques look so natural that you don't even notice them unless they are pointed out. As a trivial example, missing strictures (use strict; use warnings;) won't stand out in your code if you are not accustomed to including them in every script you write. However strictures often make a huge difference to code quality and the ability to identify and eliminate bugs early. If you even just receive one answer that provides a tip on the order of 'always use strictures', posting the code is well worth the dent to your self esteem. ;)
