Is there a way of listing everything under a directory.

So for example if you wanted to know everything under the USR directory you would get all the sub directories and files in those directories as well as the file directly under the USR directory. I would imagine that you could do this using an ls - a switch.

Anyone any ideas?

Thanks for reading,

Recursive listing option is -R
ls -R

That brill thanks...

Is there any way of showing that paths of the files/directories as well?

You could try

find /usr -name "*" -exec ls -l {} \;

where /usr is the area you wish to search, use ./ to everything below the directory you are in.

Thanks that works well...
