Here's a small tweak to your initial script which goes some way toward
shedding light on what was going wrong:
#!/usr/bin/env perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use File::Find;
use feature 'say';
my $d = './one';
find sub {
return if -f;
say $File::Find::name;
say "\$File::Find::dir<$Fi

OK, I guess I follow that. As you see in my reply to Andrew S, I kind

Devise a simple test script the counts the number of directories in a
hierarchy (This is building toward a more complex script in the end).
But taking small steps in an effort to really understand what

Trying for a better understand of using File::Find, butI'm missing
something pretty basic I think
First: The directory structure in this test:
./one/tst.pl
two/tst.pl
three/tst.pl
So each directory in the layering has the same type -f file in it.
Or
ls -R ./one
./one:
tst.pl tw
