in reply to Importing external dependencies into source

I don't know about the second application you depend on, but find can certainly be replaced by pure perl code. In fact perl even comes with the find2perl tool that will do just that!

    Thanks, but I have gone for the external dependency on the GNU find.exe because the File::Find module (which is also included in the code that the find2perl application generates) has a memory leak. Refer to File::Find memory leak

    The other GNU application I'm still to write into my code but it will most likely be "rsync". I'm just investigating it now as an option, but doing so prompted this thread
