Re: How to list files in dir with respect to time ?

You can get mtime as the tenth element of the list returned by stat. Here's a quick way to do it,

my @files_by_mtime =
    map  {$_->[0]}
    sort {$a->[1] <=> $b->[1]}
    map  {[$_,(stat)[9]]}
    glob "$dir/*";

or even easier (and faster) with Sort::Key: `use Sort::Key qw(nkeysort); my @files_by_mtime = nkeysort { (stat)[9] } glob "$dir/*";` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
