How to list files with no extension together with *.prog files?
Hi,

I know that to list files with no extension, we can use..

Code:
ls -1 | grep -v "\."

And to list .prog files, we can use..

Code:
ls -1 *.prog

or

Code:
ls -1 | grep '.prog$'

What if I wanted a single ls command that will display both? How can I do it?

Please note that I need the -1 in ls as per requirement. I'm not using Unix directly but a 3rd party application that executes the ls -1. Then I just concatenate any additional parameters or commands after it.

Thanks.

Try...
Code:
shopt -s extglob
ls !(*.*) *.prog

I'll try this and see if our 3rd party tool supports it.

Thanks.

if not, then

Code:
find . -iname '*.prog' -o -not -name '*.*'

I tried using
Code:
 find . | grep -v "\."

to list the files with no extension but its not working. Instead of 'find' if I give 'ls' it works fine. My requirement is to using it with 'find' command.
