It can be done in Perl...but I would do something like this in shell and
just run the php script through a for loop. However, since this *is* a
Perl list, you can really just do the same thing in Perl. Just run the
sucker through a for loop. The reason I'd do it in shell vs in Perl is
because it is a little easier to suck up files in shell than it is in Perl
and Frankly, that is what shell scripting is for.
