Wow, that's cool. I had never heard of find2perl. I learn something new every day on this list. I ran both the find command and the find2perl command against /Applications to find resource forks there. The find2perl version took 24 seconds and the find version took 195 seconds. A big win! I have some Perl scripts that make extensive use of find that are quite slow (because of waiting on find). I'll change them to use find2perl (or find2perl-generated code) instead and see what happens. Looks like I should have just been using File::Find in the first place, but it was a quick and dirty script that evolved into a more major tool, as always seems to happen. Thanks for the pointer! adam
