I pushed this after some tinkering: * filtering applies to all directory entries, not just files. So you can filter a subdirectory, for example. If you have symlinks (which you know this module will bomb out on) you can skip them too. * The filter sub receives the path relative to the initial source dir, rather than the absolute path. That part was just making it difficult to use; in your POD example you were testing /pg_log/ as a regex, which skipped the *files* but not the directory itself. Now you can do simply "$var ne 'pg_log'". (Pallavi Sontakke implemented most of this.) * Your test for "ref $filterfn" allowed any reference to be passed, not just a code reference. I didn't test passing some other type of reference; I assume you'd just get a very ugly error message.
