-e $a Exists True if file named in $a exists
-r $a Readable True if file named in $a is readable
-w $a Writable True if file named in $a is writable
-d $a Directory True if file named in $a is a directory
-f $a File True if file named in $a is a regular file
-T $a Text File True if file named in $a is a text file
so:
if (-d $filename) {
print "'$filename$ is a directory\n";
}

Subject: Checking for a directory
Hi All,
Just trying to work out the code to test if a path is a directory or file.

give me a clue
thanks
