List directories, subs and files

In case you refer to a 'find . -ls' works
'find . -ls' works fine, but that does not return what I need. It does not allow me to find the name of the file and the folder it belongs to.
When I have a return like this:
In excel
Same for folders:
With a regular find . -ls, I can not deduce that. Hence, need to get some more info and use more complex stuff.
In case you refer to
Files and folders with a blank space in their name (e.g. 'this is a file with a few blank spaces'), the returned file name and path is:
./this;this
and not
./this is a file with a few blank spaces;this is a file with a few blank spaces
'find . -ls' works fine, but that does not return what I need. It does not allow me to find the name of the file and the folder it belongs to.
When I have a return like this:
Quote:
3366394;0; ./folder/file;file
- I can take the last string (cf. file) and
- subtract if of (./folder/file),
- resulting in the string ./folder/, which is thus the folder holding the file.
Quote:
3366394;0; ./folder_level1/folder_level2;folder_level2
- I can take the last string (cf. folder_level2) and
- subtract if of (./folder_level1/folder_level2),
- resulting in the string ./folder_level1/, which is thus the folder holding the folder
In case you refer to
Quote:
find . -ls | awk '{match($11,"[^/]*$");type=($3~/^d/)?"directory"
($3~/^-/)?"file"$3~/^l/)?"link":"other");print $1,type,$11,substr($11,RSTART,RLENGTH)}'
($3~/^-/)?"file"$3~/^l/)?"link":"other");print $1,type,$11,substr($11,RSTART,RLENGTH)}'./this;this
and not
./this is a file with a few blank spaces;this is a file with a few blank spaces

Hello,
I would like to list the files from all directories that has been modified more than 1 month ago, and whose name is like '*risk*log'.
I think a script like this should work :
ls -R | find -name '*risk*.log' -mtime 30 -type f
But it tells me "no file found" though I can see some.

refile
refile(1mh) refile(1mh) Name refile - file message in other folders Syntax refile [ msgs ] [ +folder ] [ options ] Description Use the command to move the specified message from the current folder to another folder. You can refile messages in more than one folder by giving multiple folder names as arguments. If you do not specify a message, the current message is refiled. You can refile a message other than the current message by giving its number as a msgs argument. You can also refile more than one message at a time by specifying more than one message number, or a range of message numbers, or a message sequence. See for more information on sequences. The current folder remains the same unless the -src option is specified; in that case, the source folder becomes current. Normally, the last message specified becomes the current message. However, if the -link option is used, the current message is not changed. If the Previous-Sequence: entry is set in the file, in addition to defining the named sequences from the source folder, will also define those sequences for the destination folders. See for information concerning the previous sequence. Options -draft Refiles the draft message, or the current message in your folder, if you have one set up. You cannot give a msgs argument when you use this option. -file filename Moves a file into a folder. This option takes a file from its directory and places it in the named folder, as the next message in the folder. The file must be formatted as a legal mail message. This means that the message must have the minimum header fields separated from the body of the message by a blank line or a line of dashes. -help Prints a list of the valid options to this command. -link -nolink Keeps a copy of the message in the source folder. Normally, removes the messages from the original folder when it refiles them. The -link option keeps a copy in the original folder, as well as filing a copy in the new folder. -preserve -nopreserve Preserves the number of a message in the new folder. Normally, when a message is refiled in to another folder, it is set to the next available number in that folder. The -preserve option keeps the number of the message the same in the new folder as it had been in the old. You cannot have two messages with the same number in one folder, so you should use this option with care. -src +folder Specifies the source folder to take messages from. Normally, messages are refiled from the current folder into another folder. However, you can take messages from a different folder by using the -src +folder option to specify the alternative source folder. Examples The following example refiles messages 3 and 5 in the folder % refile 3 5 +records The next example files the current message into two folders: % refile +jones +map The next example takes message 13 in the current folder and refiles it in the folder. The message remains in the current folder as well as appearing in the folder. % refile -link 13 +test The next example takes a message from the folder when it is not the current folder, and places it in the folder % refile 3 -src +test +outbox Profile Components Path: To determine your Mail directory Folder-Protect: To set protections when creating a new folder rmmproc: Program to delete the message Files The user profile.
