Yes you did. You rewrote the command `dir /s`, which does exactly what your program does. I'm not saying it was your *intent* to rewrite dir /s.

The point of File::Find is to recurse through a directory structure. If you're doing this as a lesson for yourself, to learn how to recurse manually, I guess that's fine. But File::Find is the "right" way to do it. Paul Lalli -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/
