Re^4: reading file names to an array from the directory tree

    One stupid question. in() and name() are subs in the package. What is file() there? 
      use File::Find::Rule;
  # find all the subdirectories of a given directory
  my @subdirs = File::Find::Rule->directory->in( $directory );

  # find all the .pm files in @INC
  my @files = File::Find::Rule->file()
                              ->name( '*.pm' )
                              ->in( @INC );

      file, name and in are all three class methods and object methods. file filters out results that fail a -f test.

        But where is a description of file() method? I did not find it. And what is the role of: 
        my @files = File::Find::Rule
            ->file()
