Drieux,
Thanks for your insight on the below code. Findmodules.pl is a find
piece of art with your mods.
As for as reporting back the Bug! If it is a bug, I really can't
answer that one. Once again thanks for rewrite and the link to your
website. I never knew about it, it will for sure come in handy.
Regards,
Jaimee

the great Trick - and thank you for the snappy intro to File::Find
since I have never been there... thank you!
what I did run into is one of those odd annomalies that happens -
that piece of code 'ran away' for reasons that were not clear
until I started to check with:
http://www.wetware.com/drieux/CS/lang/Perl/Beginners/simpleFindTest.txt
it seems that this form of find causes a bit of a Mess if
you pass in the $_ - I tried a few variations on a them
#find(\&wants,$_) for(@The_Inc_We_Use);
#for(@The_Inc_We_Use) { find(\&wants,$_) ; }
#foreach( sort(@The_Inc_We_Use)) {find(\&wants,$_) ;}
and they all 'ate it' - and this was true across three OS's.
darwin, solaris, linux redhat 7.2 ... perl 5.6.1
but it will work with
foreach my $dir (@The_Inc_We_Use) { find(\&wants,$dir); }
since I wanted the idea to work - but wanted it to be
sorted down to just the module names I offer you:
http://www.wetware.com/drieux/CS/lang/Perl/Beginners/findModules.txt
If this is actually a 'bug' how should it get reported back ????
I can not find a $VERSION nor anyone on the hoof for maintaining this.
ciao
