@RavinderSingh13:

Thanks but, unfortunately, -type doesn't take care of the leading periods issue (as tested on a couple of different Linux flavors); and the improperly-formatted first directory listing remains a problem in any case...

FWIW, (a hint, perhaps?) the formatting sought is also used by Debian when the package manager creates *.list files for installed programs Smilie


Thanks again --

This works for part of the problem:
Code:
find | sed s/.// | sort

...but the first line of the output still needs to be corrected.

Is there a way of piping this through another filter to put in the required /. @ the beginning of the output?

Back again.
Code:
echo /.; find | sed s/.// | sort

almost has it licked; but now we have a blank line left behind by sed:
Quote:
/.

/usr
/usr/bin
/usr/share
/usr/share/man
/usr/share/man/man1
/usr/share/man/man1/setfacl.1.gz
???

---------- Post updated at 03:55 PM ---------- Previous update was at 03:40 PM ----------

Finished:
Code:
echo /.; find | sed s/.// | grep -v ^$ | sort

Thanks again, all Smilie

NAME
photon - generates photo albums SYNOPSIS
photon [OPTIONS] [PATH] DESCRIPTION
Photon generates clean, yet configurable, static HTML photo galleries. All of the work is done from the command line, and the resulting output can easily be configured by changing the template files found in /usr/share/photon/templates. To create a new template (skin), first create a new directory: mkdir -p ${HOME}/.photon/templates/my_theme/ Then copy the contents of /usr/share/photon/templates/photonv1/ to this new directory. Photon only needs three files to build pages: index.html used to display the content of a folder image.html used to display the page for an image movie.html used to display the page for a movie If a file is missing, then photon will throw an error and will not run. HOW TO BUILD A GALLERY
Quick start $ photon -o myoutputdir /photos Use the gimp plugin $ photon --resize-plugin=gimp -v -o myoutputdir /photos Change the size for all images and the thumbnail and keep the original photo $ photon --sizelist=0,1600x1200,800x600 --thumbsize=320x240 -o myoutputdir /photos Create a gallery from your custom template (skin) $ photon -k my_theme -o myoutputdir /photos See photon help $ photon --help OPTIONS
