Re^2: appending to a file

I checked the return values of chdir with Dumper. $in gives me
a glob memory address. I know that I am in the correct dir
because my regex matches the file names.

It will always give you a glob memory address `#!/usr/bin/perl -- use Data::Dumper; use strict; use warnings; opendir my $dh, "doesnotexist.mustnotexist"; print Dumper( $dh); __END__ $VAR1 = \{'::$dh'}; D:\dev\misc> D:\dev\misc>perl #!/usr/bin/perl -- use Data::Dumper; use strict; use warnings; for my $dir( "doesnotexist.mustnotexist", "."){ opendir my $dh, $dir; Parentheses missing around "my" list at - line 7. print "dir $dir ", Dumper( $dh); } __END__ dir doesnotexist.mustnotexist $VAR1 = \{'::$dh'}; dir . $VAR1 = \*{'::$dh'};` [download] system calls can fail for any reason	[reply] [d/l]
