From perldoc -f stat:

If "stat" is passed the special filehandle consisting of an underline, no stat 
is done, but the current
contents of the stat structure from the last "stat", "lstat", or filetest are 
returned. Example:
if (-x $file && (($d) = stat(_)) && $d < 0) {
print "$file is executable NFS file\n";
}
(This works on machines only for which the device number is negative under NFS.)


We are looking for openstack and python developers.
