if so, then why the need for file::find? you can read a single dir and
grep for the files you want with opendir and readdir. or use
File::Slurp's read_dir for a simpler api. file::find is when you want
deeper searching as it is overkill for a single level. it needs a
callback sub, you have to collect entries into a global, etc. a simple
read_dir/grep is one line.
