Using perl's File::Find

Perl's File::Find module

What does it do? What I understood

Use the find OR finddepth methods after "use"ing File::File;

find (\&wanted, '/path/name/');

This goes to all the directories in the "/path/name/" find all the files. In the subroutine select the required file.

for example
find (wanted=>sub{print $_;} '/path/name');
would print all files in /path/name/

Comamnd line CD Ripping on Linux (Kubuntu 6.10)

#> cdparnoia -vsQ
lists all the tracks

rips tracks from 1 to 10

#> cdparanoia -B -Z
(rips all no data check is done, seems to be much faster with old, broken CDs!)
