Recursive directories listing

cdog · 12-08-2006, 03:41 PM

How can I output only the names of the files and directories recursively?
Thanks

Try this:

Code:

ls -R

Thanks fordeck but I only need the names to use them in a script. I don't want paths. Maybe you can point to a scipt that does that?

Could you tell us alittle more about what your trying to accomplish? Like what are you wanting to do with the list of files? Maybe you could even give some example data to show what you are trying to do?

Regards,

Code:

ls -R|sed '/\//d'

(deletes all lines containing the character "/") (Still need one more filter to delete the empty lines--maybe?)

find . -print

That gives full pathnames--not what OP was looking for (But then I must not speak for him/her)

Code:

find . |sed 's|.*/||'

find . |sed 's|.*/||'

The power of the collective!

Excellent. Thanks guys.

If I want to write a recursive csh script for diretories listing (instead of using find), how would I do it?

Eugh, don't use csh. If you want to do it with scripts, at least use a borne style shell. csh is horrible for scripting.
