All right, now I got it!

Code:
find $direcreal -type f -print

This already prints file names separated/delimited by "\n", but then you assign this output to a variable, where AFAIK all "\n" get converted to a whitespace. Later you actually do the same with another variable.
Why not simply redirect the output of the find command to a file?
