Hello, I have searched the archives for getting filesizes with File::Recurse in Windows and found this post:

Re: Filesize counting recursive

but when I tried the code it doesn't work. Getting an error about a HASH ref:

perl mp3size.pl
Directory: ./American Music Club - San Francisco
Can't use string ("./American Music Club - San Fran") as a HASH ref while "strict refs" in use at C:/Perl/site/lib/File/Recurse.pm line 36.

Here is my code. It's supposed to read any directory containing mp3's and sum their filesizes: 

use strict;
use File::Recurse; 
my $size;
my %files = Recurse(['.'], {match => '\.mp3', nomatch => '\.html$'}); 

foreach (sort keys %files) {
    my $directory = $_; 
    
    print " Directory: $directory\n";
    Recurse(\&sum_size, $directory, \$size);
    print "Total size: $size\n";


                } 


sub sum_size
{
    my ($file, $total_size_ref) = @_;

    stat($file);    
    unless (-d $_) {
        $total_size_ref += -s $_;
    }
}
