Alternately, you may also want to take a look at merlyn's File::Finder. It has a nice clean interface.

    I still don't understand why that interface is supposed to be any better than File::Find::Rule's.

    Makeshifts last the longest.

      I like it because its uses syntax that is mapped directly from the Unix find command (which is already familiar to many). It is also compatible with File::Find::Rule (see this node).

      UPDATE: added node link.
