If you want a demonstration of this fact, on a Linux filesystem, poke
around with 'find'. Or if you've got Path::Iterator::Rule installed:
perl -MPIR -E' $it = PIR->new->ite

In my other message where I give an analogy to a "Folder" or

Thank you all for your help; all suggestions were welcome and helpful.
I didn't give the full details but Jim's solution did what I wanted the
