Re: Catching . .. in file listing

If you only want files, then just grab files and ignore all directories:

use strict;
use warnings;

opendir my $dh, $new_dir or die "Cannot open directory";
my @GPS = grep { -f "$new_dir/$_" } readdir($dh);
closedir $dh;

`my @GPS = grep { -f "$new_dir/$_" } readdir($dh);` It looks like the OP is on Windows so this is a bit OT but if you were on *nix you might want to consider adding `and not -l "$new_dir/$_"` into the `grep` depending on how you want to treat symbolic links. I hope this is of interest. Cheers, JohnGG	[reply] [d/l] [select]
