What is a localized path?

You 2nd snippet is just a really really really really round about way to do 

my $name = File::Spec->canonpath( $File::Find::name );

See Path::Class for a different interface to File::Spec.

    Localized, as in it uses uses the local file sperator. And yeah you're correct about canonpath. I seem to recall that at somepoint the two approaches werent the same, but maybe im confusing it with something else. I was kind of flu-stupid yesterday anyway....
