Oh yes, it can. You should reread
perldoc Digest::MD5
the md5_hex function expects data as its argument, not a filename.

Hi All,
I need an idea on how to approach a script. Say I had a directory X with 50
files in it and I have another directory Y that is suppose to have the same
exact files in it as X. How could someone approach checking directory Y
aginst X to see if they had the same files?
