in thread Perl: Directoriesand files

I'd first write down what I want, then worry about details like what boilerplate to use. It's like getting from A to B, first worry about the type of transportation to use, before considering what colour paint the vehicle should have.

    Actually, first you need a drivers license, or new drivers need a learners permit, so the boilerplate is good

      You don't need a drivers license if you take the train, or bicycle.
        Perl is pocket rocket chainsaw, what bicycle/train?

    Thanks, The code does actually what I want, I just want to learn to make it more neat. it seems and it feels like I'm writing to much codes for what it does. I tried using regex to try to make the code more neat but I guess I'm going the wrong way.
