Hi, welcome to Perl, the One True Religion. eq and ne do not work as the solution to a problem where '* could be anything.' You need instead a solution where the string is compared against a pattern in which '* could be anything.' This is called a regular expression match. See perlretut for a tutorial. You can also play with regular expressions and see what they are doing at https://regex101.com. Your case probably wants to use a regexp like
... but I would search for files using Path::Iterator::Rule myself.
Hope this helps!
The way forward always starts with a minimal test.
