[Boston.pm] File::Find: msg#00024

Subject: [Boston.pm] File::Find
Hey all.

I'm trying to write a script that will append a few chars (example _fr) to
the end of the "prefix" filename. All the filenames I need to change end with
.properties. I need to have this script descend into all subdirs of the dir
specified at the command line.

I can't seem to understand how to use a variable with the find(\&wanted
syntax from File::Find. I suppose I can substitute "wanted" with &$whatever ?
So far it does not work.

use strict;
use warnings;
use Getopt::Std;
use vars qw/ %opt /;
my $args = 't:s:a:';
getopts( "$args", \%opt );
my $targetdir = $opt{t};
my $searchstring = $opt{s};
my $append = $opt{a};
find(\&searchstring, $targetdir);
sub wanted { print;
