How can I list all directories under a certain one?

opendir(DIRHANDLE, $path) or die $!;
my @arrayofentries = readdir(DIRHANDLE);
closedir(DIRHANDLE);

my @directories;
foreach(@arrayofentries) { if(-d "$path/$_") { push(@directories, $_); }
}

Expensive, but functional... assuming -d is indeed the directory checker.

Thanks.

Hmm - above it shows four stars for my rating, but in my profile it says 1 vote for 5 stars?

I have a question Charles

lets say I used the above code to get the dir names (10 directories maybe) and put them in a variable "$i"
these dirs have a total of 1000 data files and I put the name of theses files to a variable "$id" and split the data in each file and get a variable $name from each file

if I use this;

print "$name";

what happens? will the server die?

*I'm reading the dir(s) and opening 1000 file at the same time :D*

You would murder the server.... *L*
