Okay, lately I have been addicted to perl and I've learned a lot, but I can't figure out how to add something to something after such and such. I made a simple ftp scanner that scans through and outputs all files and folders recursively, well, up to a certain point. Right now I use this my $global = 'www/*'; which will scan all folders and output their contents after the www folder like so 

www/folder1:


files


www/folder2:


files



And so on.


If I use my $global  = 'www/*/*'; It will output:


www/folder1/folderinfolder1:


files


www/folder2/folderinfolder2:


files


And so on.


Now, I know this isn't exactly the best way about doing it, but I have spent ages trying to find how to simply print all content from the ftp recursively, and during that search I found many things and examples which didn't actually work, but then I finally managed to figure it out (sort of) and get to this point. So, my question is, how could I add /* to the initial www/* so it becomes www/*/* after it has finished scanning www/*?


Also sorry but I can't find anywhere that tells me how to format posts.

Title:




Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>

and:  <code> code here </code>

to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML": 











 
 



  •  Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data! 
    • 

  •  Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
