Hi, all --

...and then David T-G said...

...
% I can't modify $fullpath because I'll use it later, but for parsing I
% don't need the leading "/mp3/" part, and the only way I've found to get
% rid of it elegantly is
% 
%   ...
%     @working = split(/\//,$fullpath) ;                # cut path in pieces
%     shift @working ; shift @working ;         # strip [what was] /mp3
%   ...

While it may not be a perfect solution, I hit upon

    (undef,undef,@working) =                    # peel off /mp3 ...
      split(/\//,$fullpath) ;                   # ... as we split into pieces

and find it much of an improvement.  Further improvement is welcome :-)


Two down (perhaps even out!), and one to go...

TIA & HAND
