[MacPerl-WebCGI] How art thou glob?

["Randy M. Zeitman" <randzman@chesco.com>]

question...what's the right format to glob while specifying a filepath?
(sample below...don't work) I have no problem open the file using the open
command so I know my directory's ok...is there a perl 'current working
directory' I can set?...don't see it in the Learning Perl book.

Also, to Randal Swartz et al, I'm reviewing this title for
compbookreview.com and like it very much. Perl Cookbook too...

#!perl

#%words = "";
get_files();

sub get_files {
while( defined($filename = glob("BeCause:Desktop Folder:perl code:*.cde")) ) {

print ("$filename is ", "$filename\n");

open(WORDLIST, $filename) || die "can't open file: $!";

while( defined($name = <WORDLIST>) ) {
chomp($name);
$word = <WORDLIST>;
chomp($word);
$words{$name} = $word;
}
close(WORDLIST) || die "can't close file: $!";
}
}
