Re^2: perl glob

[Anonymous Monk]

Sorry for my poor english...

The converter.pl is an other long programm which I have wrote for converting scripts in one programming language to the scripts in an other. But with converter.pl I can only convert one file in one go. E.g.:

perl converter.pl abc.ws

It will create a new script names abc.is. So I wrote this simple wrapper, to allow me converting several ws files in one go. E.g.:

perl wrapper.pl .ws

For instance, it converts abc.ws, efg.ws and hij.ws in one go, which I can't achieve with:

perl converter.pl .ws.

P.S.

perl converter.pl *.ws

also didn't work, probably because I also allowed users to define the output filename by themselves, e.g.:

perl converter.pl abc.ws efg.is

And here is the relevant codes in converter.pl:

my $file_name = "";
if (scalar(@ARGV) == 2){
    $file_name .= $ARGV[1];
} else {
    $ARGV[0] =~ s/(.+)\.\S+/$1/;
    $file_name .= $ARGV[0];
    $file_name .= ".is";
}

I checked here whether the user defined a name for the "is" file, if not the "is" file will take the same name with the "ws" file.

Many thanks!
