ls -l | awk '/^-/{print substr($0, index($0,$9))}'
Thanks a lot in2nix4life
This works the best for me since ls -l on its own returns too much info. where as I want just the file name.
The find command appends unwanted info. as well.
I however do have another subsequent command that ignores filenames with spaces. Basically, I copy the file names present into a temporary text file using in2nix4life's command above in the following way:
Code:
ls -l | awk '/^-/{print substr($0, index($0,$9))}' > LIST_FILES.txt
Now I need to count the number of lines in each file whose names are in this temporary text file which I'm doing using:
Code:
wc -l file name with blanks.txt| awk '{print $1}'
Unfortunately here its looking for different files called file, name, is & blank and not one file as it should be. I thus get:
Code:
wc: file: No file found
wc: name: No file found
wc: with: No file found
wc: blanks.txt: No file found
I guess there is a way to use the wc command so that it considers file names with spaces.
I have a problem with the script below
#!/bin/sh
for vo in `find -maxdepth 1 -type f -regex "^\./*$"`
do
ls -l "$vo"
some other commands
done
It works fine until `find ...` returns files with spaces. I've tryed to change IFS but haven't succeed
Any solutions? (4 Replies)
