I've used File::Find::prune to stop searching. You can set a flag when you find your file, and prune if $flag.
#!/usr/bin/perl
# linux only
use warnings;
use strict;
use File::Find;
use File::Spec;
if (@ARGV < 2){print "Usage: $0 dir depth\n";exit}
my ($path, $depth)= @ARGV;
my $abs_path = File::Spec->rel2abs($path); #in case you enter . for di
+r
my $m = ($abs_path) =~ tr!/!!; #count slashes in top path
find (\&found,$abs_path);
exit;
sub found{
my $n = ($File::Find::name) =~ tr!/!!; #count slashes in file
return $File::Find::prune = 1 if $n > ($m + $depth);
return unless -d;
# do stuff here.
#print "$_\n"; #name only
print "$File::Find::name\n"; #name with full path
}

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
