Listing Files in a Directory with Perl

Listing Files in a Directory with Perl

The following code:

`ls -t ../../html/indexed | awk {'print $9'}`

Will return an array of files, eg:

@files=`ls -t ../../html/indexed | awk {'print $9'}`;
@files is now an array containing the names of all of the files in the ./../html/indexed directory.
