It is of course a matter of taste. I personally don't like your solution so much, because it globs for the files twice (in the while- and in the for-loop), which makes maintenance more difficult (think about the case, when the requirement changes and you have to look for files matching, say, *.log, instead of * ... you have to remember to make the change in two places).
Of course if we start thinking in this way, there is much more which could be improved in this script .....

Mason::Manual::Setup(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Mason::Manual::Setup(3pm)
NAME
Mason::Manual::Setup - Setting up Mason
SETUP
Web development
The most common use of Mason is to generate dynamic web content.
Poet is a web framework designed specifically to work with Mason. Given an HTTP request, Poet generates a corresponding Mason request, and
uses the output from Mason to form the HTTP response. Poet takes care of the web development details that are outside of Mason's domain,
such as server integration and configuration. Poet::Manual::Tutorial shows how to set up a Poet/Mason site in great detail.
Mason can also be used in the popular web frameworks Catalyst and Dancer, as a drop-in replacement for their default template engines. See
Catalyst::View::Mason2 and Dancer::Template::Mason2.
Non-web development
Mason can be used to generate any kind of dynamic content. I have personally used it to generate Apache configuration files, emails, and
C++ code.
To use Mason from a script or library, use the Mason::Interp API:
my $interp = Mason->new(
comp_root => '/path/to/comps',
data_dir => '/path/to/data',
...
);
my $output = $interp->run( '/request/path', foo => 5 )->output();
If you want to process a directory with a mix of Mason templates and static files, check out Any::Template::ProcessDir.
To try out Mason syntax from the command line, use the mason script:
% mason
2 + 2 = <% 2+2 %>
^D
2 + 2 = 4
LOGGING
Mason uses Log::Any to log various events, such as the start and end of each request. You can direct thesse logs to the output of your
choice; see Log::Any::Adapter. If you don't specify anything then the logs will go into the void.
