Near as I can tell, when looking at perldoc File::Find
when used as a variable $File::Find::name it supposed to be the
absolute filename (In part!):
perldoc File::Find (In part!):
[...]
$File::Find::dir is the current directory name,
$_ is the current filename within that directory
$File::Find::name is the complete pathname to the file.
** Note it says `complete' -ed hp
Don't modify these variables.
For example, when examining the file /some/path/foo.ext you will have:
$File::Find::dir = /some/path/
$_ = foo.ext
$File::Find::name = /some/path/foo.ext
[...]
Am I misunderstanding this?
The output I'm getting is a relative name, and that is what I've fed
the find function. But still the docu seems to indicate it will
return the absolute (`complete' as above) file name.
