Thanks. Assuming you're on a *nix system, you can skip Perl altogether, and use the unix command-line tool 'find': [%prompt%] find /usr/lib -type f -print -name '*.so*' If you want to save the list to file, just redirect the output with the greater-than symbol '>' and specify a file name: [%prompt%] find /usr/lib -type f -print -name '*.so*' > some_file.txtB Of course a Perl script will work, and will even be more flexible, but if that's all you need, the unix tools work great.
