dear all,
i am trying to check if there are any files named file* (e.g.
file_001.txt file1.doc) in my directory.
if( -e "file*" ) { print("true\n"); } # this doesn't work
else { print("false\n"); }
if( -e "m/^file/" ) { print("true\n"); } # this doesn't work either
else { print("false\n"); }
thank you in advance, any answer would be greatly appreciated.
-H.
