Hi all,

Again with this globbing.. I can't see anything about using glob in reverse
order only using nosort. 

I'm using this:

my $dir = "./news/*.n";
@files = glob("$dir");

Have having this listing using "ls -l" which is the order that glob seems to
be doing,

Dec 10 16:30 011024.n
Dec 10 16:28 011026.n
Dec 10 16:28 011107.n
Dec 10 19:21 011210.n
Dec 12 16:33 011212.n
Dec 13 10:48 011213.n
Dec 14 14:48 011214.n
Dec 18 13:37 011217.n

but what I need is this (reversed/latest first):

Dec 18 13:37 011217.n
Dec 14 14:48 011214.n
Dec 13 10:48 011213.n
Dec 12 16:33 011212.n
Dec 10 19:21 011210.n
Dec 10 16:28 011107.n
Dec 10 16:28 011026.n
Dec 10 16:30 011024.n

I can't figure out how to use the File::Glob properly.. can anyone help?

thanks,
