Hi All,
Kindly let me know if this possible, deleting some selected files from a
directory through a perl script. This selection would be based on the
filename existing in a particular text file, if it exists then delete from
directory otherwise not since I do not want to delete all of the files in
this directory.
Cheers Kamal
