in thread appending to a file

I want to append the three files to my $out file.
I only need each file appended once. The loop is appending each file
four times. Any ideas?

    Without a fair bit of rewriting your original code, you can add a last; after the final call to close() -- this will exit the for my $f(@files) loop.

    This isn't the way I'd write the script, personally, but I don't know enough about your file structure to revise it accurately. I'd probably use File::Find to make this a bit simpler.
