File::pfopen - Try hard to find a file
Version 0.03
Look in a list of directories for a file with an optional list of suffixes.
use File::pfopen 'pfopen';
($fh, $filename) = pfopen('/tmp:/var/tmp:/home/njh/tmp', 'foo', 'txt:bin');
$fh = pfopen('/tmp:/var/tmp:/home/njh/tmp', 'foo', '<');
If mode (argument 4) isn't given, the file is open read/write ('+<')

Doesn't play well in taint mode.
Using the colon separator can cause confusion on Windows.
Would be better if the mode and suffixes options were the other way around, but it's too late to change that now.
