*sigh* Maybe I should leave this stuff to the pros...I put the horse before
the cart, here is the corrected version:

----------------------snip here---------------------------
#ASCII Player Files Cleanup
#Change these varables to suit your situation.
MD=/home/zizazat/circle/aoa/lib
DAYS=60
DN="pfiles plralias plrobjs plrvars"

#Remove entries from the plr_index file
cd $MD/pfiles
oldnames=`find . -type f -mtime +$DAYS|cut -f3 -d/`
for x in $oldnames
do
  grep -wv $x plr_index > tmp;mv tmp plr_index
done

#Clean up files older than $DAYS days.
for d in $DN
do
  find $MD/$d -type f -mtime +$DAYS -exec rm {} \;
done
----------------------snip here---------------------------
