Subject: Recursing through directories

Hi there

I have a simple script (untested)

require 'ftools'
Dir.entries( '/Volumes/' ).each |item| do
   File.move( item, item.gsub( /\//, '-' ) ) if File.file? item
end

The idea is to remove slashes from file names, I can later extend  
this to include other characters also. But how the deuce can I make  
it go in to each directoy to make sure each file is renamed even many  
subdirectories down?

Many thanks

Gabriel
