So scratch what I said, what Gunnar said is better.
my @files;
is what you want, as my @files = (); is basically pointless ;p
Now I think you are too hard to yourself. :) I've noticed that some prefer @files = () for clarity, so it may not be totally pointless.
At the same time it's important to be aware of that side-effect of my(), or else you may encounter surprises...
