Talk:Walk a directory/Recursively
I think the precise statement of the problem is a little too restricted. In some cases it's possible to walk the directory tree, printing all the matching filenames with somewhat less code than it is to walk the tree in order to collect a list of the matches or to perform other operations on them. Also there are many criteria on which one might wish to select files beyond just file names. JimD 19:13, 15 October 2007 (MDT)
