RE: [MLUG - DISCUSSION] Dumb Perl Question

["Woodsmall, Ryan (IATS)" <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

if you really want to do it in perl, look at the 'glob' function.  you
could also use the standard 'opendir,' 'stat,' 'open' way of doing
things...  glob is easier.  do a `man perlfunc` and search for glob, or
a `man File::Glob` to see the options.  turning on directory indexing
and getting rid of your index.* file(s) in that directory would still be
easier, though.
