You can use the File::Find module. It even has a find2perl utility for
taking the work of writing a matching subroutine out:
Then you get something like
#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use FindBin qw{$Bin};
use File::Find;
find(\&wanted, $Bin);
sub wanted {
(my ($dev,$ino,$mode,$nlink,$uid,$gid) = lstat($_)) &&
(int(-M _) > 7) &&
/\.log$/ &&
(unlink($_) || warn "$name: $!\n");
}
