Hi, I wrote a command-line utility using your module that makes is easy to delete duplicate files.

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use File::Find::Duplicates;
$|++; # AutoFlush the Buffer
 
&usage if $#ARGV eq '-1';
 
my %dupes = find_duplicate_files(@ARGV);
 
die "No duplicates found!\n" unless keys %dupes;
 
print "############ Duplicate File Report & Removal Utility ##########
+##\n";
 
my $i = 1;
foreach my $fsize (keys %dupes) {
    print "#" x 64 . "  " . $i++ . "\n";
    print map {-l $_ ? "# push \@delete, '$_'; # symlinked to " . read
+link($_) . "\n": "# push \@delete, '$_';\n"} @{ $dupes{$fsize} };
    print "\n";
}
 
print "unlink \@delete;\n";
 
sub usage {
(my $script_name = $0) =~ s#.*/##;  # $0 = full path to script
print <<END;
Generates a Report on Duplicate Files.
Usage: $script_name [List of Directories]
 
END
exit
}
 
### POD ###
 
=head1 Name
 
dupes - a command line utility to report on all duplicate files, even 
+if they
have different names.  This is good for mp3s and multiple drafts of do
+cuments
that may have been backed up in different places.
 
=head1 Synopsis
 
dupes [list of directories to search recursively]
 
=head1 From an empty buffer in Vim
 
The following commands will fill the buffer with a report of all dupli
+cate
files.
 
 :%!dupes [list of directories]
 
B<or>
 
 !!dupes [list of directories]
 
The report generated by the above commands is yet another perl script 
+that can
be edited allowing you to flag certain files for removal.
 
The following command will run the report and remove all flagged files
+.
 
 :%!perl
 
Nothing is deleted unless you flag the file by uncommenting the line.
 
If you don't understand how the report works, the following commands s
+hould
explain it.
 
 perldoc -f push
 
 perldoc -f unlink
