Identifying Directory

Anonymous Monk has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hi Monks!

How could a make a directory print different if found? Here are more details
All that has to be done is to give a path to be search on $dir, and this code will print a directory tree out of it, but I would like to see if inside of the given path on $dir more directories are found I would like to see them highlighted for further display options.
Here is the code:

#!/perl/bin/perl

use warnings;
use strict;
use File::Slurp::Tree;
use CGI qw(:header);
use CGI::Carp qw(fatalsToBrowser);
use CGI qw/:standard/;


# The tree datastructure is a hash of hashes.  The keys of 
# each hash are names of directories or files.  Directories 
# have hash references as their value, files have a scalar 
# which holds the contents of the file. 

my $dir = "c:/progra~1/apache~1/apache2/cgi-bin/test";
my %tree;
my $tree = slurp_tree($dir);
my $depth = 0;

print header();
   
print_keys($tree);

sub print_keys {
    my $href = shift;
    $depth++;
    foreach ( keys %$href ) {
          
    if(-d $_){ print "<b>Dir exists= $_</b><br>";}
    
        print '****' x $depth, "<input type=checkbox> --$_<br>\n";
        print_keys( $href->{$_} ) if ref $href->{$_} eq 'HASH';
        
        
    }
    $depth--;
}

    This will work on Windows
