Re: Re: special directory entries

It is interesting to note that opendir/readdir is signifigantly faster than glob. But then again its less readable.

@Yves: yes, that's true; I just prefer using File::DosGlob because it might turn the code a little bit clearer, and in addition to that allows you to ask only for files matching a pattern. But sometimes performance really is important. Best regards, Martin aka Strat	[reply]
