Ok, I'm in the middle of writing some shellscript... and I've become a bit stuck.

I need to get a directory listing into a file, but here's the catch... I need the path preceding it. Now in DOS (booo) I found that if I do "dir /S /b", i get a nice directory listing with each file having the path preceding it, but I can't figure out how to do this in Linux.

Heres a sample of what I need:

/home/httpd/index.htm
/home/httpd/blob.gif
/home/httpd/myscript.sh

instead of

/home/httpd/:
index.htm
blob.gif
myscript.sh

Now, I've read and re-read the manual for "ls" many times, get I can't find a way to do the same thing under linux... The closest I've come is "ls -AR1"

Would a bit of shellscript be able to achieve this?

try using find on the directory of your choice with no other criterion or actions.
finds output is in the form you desire.

Ooo... the find command. I've never used that one before.

I've had a quick play with it, and it works a treat. Thanks.
