in thread Reading specific files from a directory

What counts as "older versions of perl"? I am using 5.005(+/-) and when working with lots of files (sometimes more than 20,000), glob just doesn't work.

Thanks for pointing this out though, as it indicates that it may be time for me to move on (to a newer version, that is).
