The opendir(), readdir(), and closedir() functions.
my $path = "/home/jeffp/pub_html/tmp";
opendir DIR, $path or die "can't readdir $path: $!";
while (defined (my $file = readdir DIR)) {
next if $file eq '.' or $file eq '..'; # skip . and ..
my $full = "$path/$file";
# ...
}
closedir DIR;
Please refer to 'perlfunc'.
perldoc perlfunc
perldoc -f readdir
