recursively listing directories full paths


how can I recusively list the full path off all the files on from a directory on forward

for instance, I would like something like:

/home
/home/foo/file1
/home/foo/file2
/home/dir/log.log
/home/dir/files/file1
/home/dir/files/file2

I need the full path cause I'm making a shell script and I'm stuck


thanks

Just do:
#find .
and it'll list everything from your present dir and subdirs

Cheers!

ls -la ./* should aslo recurse through directories, do ls -lad ./* to do just directories not files
