I think your solution is better. More readable and less prone to error besides.. there is always more than one way to do it. But what do i know... I just work here. ;-) Ope Bakare ClearCase Administrator "Michael Marziani" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> on 03/11/2002 01:06:50 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] cc: (bcc: Opeyemi Bakare/WTC1/Empire) Subject: [Perl-unix-users] Is there a regex trick for this? I have an array @exclude_dirs that I want my list of directories matched against, and if it matches, then I want to go on to the next one.

I have an array
@exclude_dirs that I want my list of directories matched against, and if it
matches, then I want to go on to the next one. I thought I saw someone do
something like:
if( $line =~
/@exclude_dirs/ ) {
next;
}
Does that
work? My alternative is to just run through my exclude list every time
like:
foreach $dir
@exclude_dirs {
if $line =~ /$dir/ {
next;
}
}
Thanks for the
help!
