Shell Programming and Scripting

Hello, I've been trying to use find command to find and print out some files. When I execute the command on the command line I get the output as expected howerver when I run it in the script it doesn't wrap.

For example, this is nicely wraped
find /etc -perm -o=w -exec ll '{}' \;
lrwxrwxrwt 1 root sys 20 Aug 26 15:13 /etc/vtdaemonlog -> /var/adm/vtdaemonlog
lrwxrwxrwt 1 root sys 14 Aug 26 15:13 /etc/savecore -> /sbin/savecore
lrwxrwxrwt 1 root sys 18 Aug 26 15:13 /etc/dumpdates -> /var/adm/dumpdates

but when I do the same command in the ksh script, like like
echo `find /etc -perm -o=w -exec ll '{}' \;`

I get the following

lrwxrwxrwt 1 root sys 20 Aug 26 15:13 /etc/vtdaemonlog -> /var/adm/vtdaemonlog lrwxrwxrwt 1 root sys 14 Aug 26 15:13 /etc/savecore -> /sbin/savecore lrwxrwxrwt 1 root sys 18 Aug 26 15:13 /etc/dumpdates -> /var/adm/dumpdates lrwxrwxrwt 1 root sys 22 Aug 26 15:13 /etc/dce.clean -> /opt/dce/bin/dce.clean srwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Aug 26 16:20 /etc/useracct/utmpd_read -rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 3640 Oct 23 09:12 /etc/utmpx

everything is on one line ... there is no end line.
How can I make it print each record on 1 line?

Thank you,

why are you using echo? you can use the command as it is. no need to echo it
remove echo and backquotes i-e ` it should work

YES, it does work, great, thank you!

Place the command within quotes:

Code:

echo "`find /etc  -perm -o=w -exec ll '{}' \;`"

that works too! Thank you
