Scripting in perl on a Windows OS and spaces in file names.

I'm pretty sure this has been covered many times here, and I believe
there are modules and such devoted to the problem but searching on www.cpan.org
with various search strings hasn't turned up something specifically for
this problem, although I may have missed it if the name isn't clearly
about this problem.


 Can anyone point me to right stuff

I plan to write a script that checks for and then deletes massive
numbers of files.  I'm sure many will have spaces in the name.

There shouldn't be any problems as long as you use opendir/readdir to read file names from a directory and use the three argument form of open if you have to open files.
