DESCRIPTION

This library enables you easily generate a list of all the files under a directory which match a pattern.

FUNCTIONS

        match($$$)
        init($$$)
        doit($)
        TEST($)

FUNCTION DOCUMENTATION

match($$$)

This does an imitation of grep receiving a directory, a regular expression of file names and a regular expression to search for in the files and gives out a list of all the files in that directory who match the criteria. This uses the find function from File::Find to do it.

init($$$)

This function starts up the matching variables for use when the File::Find routines kick into action.

doit($)

This routine actually does the match.

TEST($)

A test suite for this module.

SUPER CLASSES

None.

BUGS
