In order to use the array @files in the below code outside of the
subroutine, so I need to declare @files globally? 
I'm getting errors at the moment: Global symbol "@files" requires explicit
package name

If so, where is the correct place to declare them in terms of neatness? At
the start of the program? above the subroutine?

Thanks.


#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;
#use Image::Magick::Thumbnail;

# set directory to read images from
my $dir = "/ged/code/photo/vx";

# read all files from given directory
opendir DH, $dir or die "Cannot open $dir: $!";
foreach my $file (readdir DH) {
   unless ($file =~ /^\./) {
      push my(@files), $file;
   }
}
closedir DH;

#check files are in the array
print $_ foreach @files;
