Well, there's two methods that I use where I can and they are probably
more portable.
glob works well most of the time:
@files = </directory/goes/here/*>;
But it has problems with large numbers of files. And the problems will
cause it to fail badly.
The other is to opendir and read in a loop.
In either case you need to remove the '.' and '..' entries:
@files = grep {! /^\./} </directory/goes/here/*>
or something like that.
I should warn you, not only is this untested code, but I haven't even
had my coffee yet.
