Couple of ways :
1) quick and dirty
- if it's unix and you don't mind it not being portable to windows
- do the -d test on the vars so you know they are directories and not evil
commands to delete stuff or something
if((-d $orig_dir)&&(-d $dest_dir)) {
print `cp -R $orig_dir $dest_dir`;
}
else { print "One of your directories is a bad monkey! \n"; }
2) more secure and portable
try the File::Slurp ( I'm sure there's other more suited to your particular
task )
module or other modules at http://serach.cpan.org
