Here's a shell/awk method for listing files with full path name, and start/stop counts ... in the example, "/tmp/a" is the absolute path to the folder containing the files.
If you only want to list the files in the folder, skipping any sub-folders, add the "-maxdepth 1" option to the find command ...
This solution should be pretty portable to Linux/Unix platforms and provides more control over the set of files in the listing output. If you are planning to run this routine in a frequently, say in a crontab or loop ... simply set the START and COUNT variables each time to progress through your files.
