ls -l -R >mylogfile

This will recursively (hence the -R) list files starting where you currently are. It will send the result to a file called mylogfile

Hi You can use this command:

ls -R > fileslist

Hope this is what you want!

Watch the power of find:
go the the directory you want to list, and type:
find . -print|more

And see the output, if its what you want, just redirect it to a file...

Thanks guys; this worked great. Exactly what I was looking for.

You have to specify some action for "find". Many modern "find"s (including the AIX v5.3 i'm working on) imply "-print" if nothing else is specified, but that is only silently tolerating faulty input. All of the following lines would work regardless of the "find" in question being a "classical" (unassuming) or a "modern" one:

find /path/to/starting/directory -print > outputfile
find /path/to/starting/directory -ls > outputfile
find /path/to/starting/directory -exec ls -l {} \; > outputfile
etc.
