Hello Camillo
It seems you're not too well versed with Perl?

This will work, but "10000" is a string, whereas you really mean
a number. The two are interchangeable in Perl. Might as well say
$size = 10000;
if that's what you mean.

This is 'doing something' if the file size is less than or equal
to $size. If you want to do it only "if a file is not less then
10000 bytes" you want:
If (-s "file" >= $size) {do something...}
but you may as well hard-code the value here unless you
have a reason not to.
If (-s "file" >= 10000) {do something...}
> else{next;}
Finally, if the else is a 'next' you can reduce this to:
next If -s "file" < 10000;
do something...;
How does that fit?

And by the way, please post to the perl.beginners group,
rather than directly to me. Thanks.
