One way is to walk the tree. First pass finds all the directories,
then we count all the files and directories under each directory.
Grossly inefficient on a deep tree ... but short to code.

COUNTER=$(find "${SUBDIR}" -print|wc -l)
echo "${SUBDIR} : ${COUNTER}"
done

Hello,
Using the instruction mget (within ftp) and with "Interactive mode off", I want to get all files from directory (DirAA), but not the files in sub-directories.
The files names don't follow any defined rule, so they can be just letters without (.) period

Can anyone come up with a unix command that lists

Thank you in advance. (7 Replies)
Find all files in the current directory only excluding hidden directories and files.
For the below command, though it's not deleting hidden files.. it is traversing through the hidden directories and listing normal which should be avoided.

hardlink
hardlink(1) General Commands Manual hardlink(1)NAME
hardlink - Consolidate duplicate files via hardlinks
SYNOPSIS
hardlink [-c] [-n] [-v] [-vv] [-h] directory1 [ directory2 ... ]
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents hardlink, a program which consolidates duplicate files in one or more directories using hardlinks.
hardlink traverses one or more directories searching for duplicate files. When it finds duplicate files, it uses one of them as the mas-
ter. It then removes all other duplicates and places a hardlink for each one pointing to the master file. This allows for conservation of
disk space where multiple directories on a single filesystem contain many duplicate files.
Since hard links can only span a single filesystem, hardlink is only useful when all directories specified are on the same filesystem.
OPTIONS -c Compare only the contents of the files being considered for consolidation. Disregards permission, ownership and other differ-
ences.
-f Force hardlinking across file systems.
-n Do not perform the consolidation; only print what would be changed.
-v Print summary after hardlinking.
-vv Print every hardlinked file and bytes saved. Also print summary after hardlinking.
-h Show help.

BUGS
hardlink assumes that its target directory trees do not change from under it. If a directory tree does change, this may result in hardlink
accessing files and/or directories outside of the intended directory tree. Thus, you must avoid running hardlink on potentially changing
directory trees, and especially on directory trees under control of another user.
