Question List the files without directory path
Hi

I am writing a script to find the list of files in dir1 and my script is place in dir2

while doing ls of files dir1 it is displaying with path. I would like to omit the path and display the only file name so that I can pass it to my script as arguments.


for filename in $datafiles/*.dat
#cat $filename |
do
echo "in for loop $filename "
grep -i "dummy file" $filename > /dev/null || echo $filename >> temp
if [ -s temp ]
then
touch checkfile
fi
done

This script is taking the path also .


Any help Appreciated


Thank you
Madan

nodesave

NODESAVE(8)						   Linux System Managers Manual 					       NODESAVE(8)

NAME

       nodesave - Saves NET/ROM routing information

SYNOPSIS

       nodesave [-p path] [-v] [filename]

DESCRIPTION

       Nodesave  saves	the contents of the /proc filesystem entries for the NET/ROM routing tables. The output of the program is in the form of a
       Bourne shell script that calls nrparms(8) to recreate the NET/ROM routing information. If no filename is given on  the  command	line,  the
       program writes the script to stdout.

       Typically  nodesave  would  be  used  when  taking  a system off-air so that the NET/ROM routing may be quickly restored when the system is
       brought back on-line.

OPTIONS

       -p path	 Set the path to the nrparms binary. This only affects the output of the program. Default is /usr/sbin.

       -v	 Display the version.

FILES

       /proc/net/nr_neigh
       /proc/net/nr_nodes

SEE ALSO

       netrom(4), netromd(8), nrparms(8).
