Returns the next directory entry for a directory opened byopendir. If used in list context, returns all the rest of the entries in the directory. If there are no more entries, returns an undefined value in scalar context or a null list in list context.
If you're planning to filetest the return values out of areaddir, you'd better prepend the directory in question. Otherwise, because we didn'tchdir there, it would have been testing the wrong file.
