[trwww@misa trwww]$ perldoc -f unlink unlink LIST unlink Deletes a list of files. Returns the number of files successfully deleted. you can write it like that, but unlink() works in list context. unlink( @$filelist ); will work fine, no need to loop. Understanding the concept of the list will reduce the length of your code by 20%. Probably more. Todd W -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
