File::Wildcard::Find (3pm)

  use File::Wildcard::Find;
  findbegin( "/home/me///core");
  while (my $file = findnext()) {
     unlink $file;
  }

File::Wildcard provides a comprehensive object interface that allows you to do powerful processing with wildcards. Some consider this too unwieldy for simple tasks.

The module File::Wildcard::Find provides a straightforward interface. Only a single wildcard stream is accessible, but this should be sufficient for one liners and simple applications.

findbegin

This takes 1 parameter, a path with wildcards as a string. See File::Wildcard for details of what can be passed.

findnext

Iterator that returns successive matches, then undef.

findall

Returns a list of all matches
