There are two questions here: firstly how do you write an application
which creates a "database which maintains directory structure";
secondly how do you do that specifically in Perl.

I'm not sure I understand the first question, but it's not appropriate
to ask it here. This is a group for discussing the coding of the
program in Perl, not the design of it.

Once you've worked out the first question then the second one is a
valid topic here, but custom says that you'll only get help if you
have had a try at coding your program in Perl first, and come here to
get advice on how to make it better.
