nysus has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I have a simple function to test the parse_dir function:
1 #!/usr/bin/perl 2 use File::Listing qw(parse_dir); 3 $listing = `ls -l`; 4 @directories = parse_dir($listing); 5 print @directories;
Using perl version 5.8.8. No errors, but nothing is returned even though there are definitely entries in the directory. Any ideas?
