> I am going to put them into an array, and then run

> over-written. How can I use an array with
> file::find?

> I was thinking something along the lines of:
>
> # @oldarray = pathnames from the file.
> # @newarray = the updated pathnames from file::find
>
> sub findfile {
> $count=$count+1;
> if ($_ eq $oldarray[$count])
> {
> $newarray[$count] =
> file::find::name;
> }
> }
> find \&findfile, "..";
>
> after that, I was thinking of of opening the file
> again, and searching/replacing the matched lines
> with
> newarray lines:
>
> eg. open(MYFILE, $match) || die "Can't open file:
> $!";
>
> while (defined($a=<MYFILE>))
> {
> $count=$count+1;
> if ($a =~ /$oldarray[$count]/){
> $a = s/$oldarray[$count]/$newarray[$count]
> }
> }
>
> i have a little c++ experience and am not sure

> @newarray[$count] is appropriate. no doubt this is
