# rewinddir

## Synopsis

```perl
rewinddir(DIRHANDLE);
```

## Description

Resets the position of a directory handle back to the beginning.

Sets the current position of DIRHANDLE back to the beginning of
the directory, so that subsequent `readdir` calls will re-read
the directory from the start.  The directory must have been
previously opened with `opendir`.

Returns 1 on success, undef on failure.
