I was wondering more: to what point do you call something you type at the prompt "single command line"...
For I dont get how it is possible to display the 2 first lines with the following...
Unless you have find with fancy options we dont know...
Here are variants on ONE line:
Code:
lo4:/export/home/vbe $ ls -lrhid sample"/./";ls -lidhFR sample/*/.*| grep 2711
      2711 drwxr-xr-x   6 vbe      sysdso         6 Mar 16 16:02 sample/./
      2711 drwxr-xr-x   6 vbe      sysdso         6 Mar 16 16:02 sample/paper/../
      2711 drwxr-xr-x   6 vbe      sysdso         6 Mar 16 16:02 sample/test/../
      2711 drwxr-xr-x   6 vbe      sysdso         6 Mar 16 16:02 sample/text/../
      2711 drwxr-xr-x   6 vbe      sysdso         6 Mar 16 16:02 sample/work/../
lo4:/export/home/vbe $ ls -liRdF sample/.* |grep 2711 
      2711 drwxr-xr-x   6 vbe      sysdso         6 Mar 16 16:02 sample/./
lo4:/export/home/vbe $ for i in sample sample"/." sample/*/.* ; do ls -lidRF $i|grep 2711;done
      2711 drwxr-xr-x   6 vbe      sysdso         6 Mar 16 16:02 sample/
      2711 drwxr-xr-x   6 vbe      sysdso         6 Mar 16 16:02 sample/./
      2711 drwxr-xr-x   6 vbe      sysdso         6 Mar 16 16:02 sample/paper/../
      2711 drwxr-xr-x   6 vbe      sysdso         6 Mar 16 16:02 sample/test/../

      2711 drwxr-xr-x   6 vbe      sysdso         6 Mar 16 16:02 sample/work/../
lo4:/export/home/vbe $ for i in sample sample"/." sample/*/.. ; do ls -lidF $i;done           
      2711 drwxr-xr-x   6 vbe      sysdso         6 Mar 16 16:02 sample/
      2711 drwxr-xr-x   6 vbe      sysdso         6 Mar 16 16:02 sample/./
      2711 drwxr-xr-x   6 vbe      sysdso         6 Mar 16 16:02 sample/paper/../
      2711 drwxr-xr-x   6 vbe      sysdso         6 Mar 16 16:02 sample/test/../
      2711 drwxr-xr-x   6 vbe      sysdso         6 Mar 16 16:02 sample/text/../
      2711 drwxr-xr-x   6 vbe      sysdso         6 Mar 16 16:02 sample/work/../

Are you sure you understood with what we are to solve (just ls or find?...)?
Thrcky bit is not much /../ but to get / , /./ and /../ together in one pass... It has to do with th inode itself but its friday I am a bit tired... and lack of imagination at the time...
