List files without path

mijohnst · 12-05-2005, 02:21 PM

I'm trying to run a SUM on some files and I'm trying to figure out how to list them in a certain way.

If I have three 4 files:

/tmp/test1
/home/test2
/user/local/bin/test3
/root/test4

And I want to do a sum on them:

find / -name test* | xargs sum | awk ' {print $1, $2, $3} '

48946 1 /tmp/test1
19974 2 /home/test2
59667 3 /user/local/bin/test3
40093 2 /root/test4

How do I get it to list only the file name and not where it resides?

48946 1 test1
19974 2 test2
59667 3 test3
40093 2 test4

Thanks again!

'man basename'

i think it's:

Code:

basename /path/to/file

Thanks Schneidz...

I'm playing with it right now... Seems like what I'm looking for if I could only get it to work now!
