Hi Jeff.
File::Find would do it for you, but the revursion is very
simple really:
use strict;
use warnings;
printdir('/usr');
sub printdir {
my $dir = shift;
opendir DIR, $dir or die $!;
my @dirs = grep /[^.]/, readdir DIR;
closedir DIR;
foreach (map "$dir/$_", @dirs) {
if (-d) {
printdir($_);
}
elsif (-f _) {
print $_, "\n";
}
}
}
HTH,
Rob
