MySQL create paths
Hello!

If I have file like that:

AAA
->bbb
->ccc
->ddd
->eee

how to create full paths like:

AAA->bbb
AAA->ccc->ddd
AAA->ccc->eee

?

Do you want to list files in a directory tree with a full path name?
Here is an example for a directory called "dir"
Code:
prefix="/dir"
find $prefix -type f |\
while read file 
do
       printf "%s/%s\n" "$prefix" "$file"
done > listfile

Thank you, but it is not what I wanted...
It is all about text files - I have one, that looks like:

Sistēma
->Pieslēgties
->Datu apmaiņa
-> Kases aparāti
-> Fiskālo printeru serviss
-> Grāmatojumu imports
-> Datu imports
-> Pavadzīmju eksports
-> BarMan imports
-> Datu ārējais eksports
-> Drošības kopija

and I need:

Sistēma->Pieslēgties
Sistēma->Datu apmaiņa-> Kases aparāti
Sistēma->Datu apmaiņa-> Fiskālo printeru serviss

in other text file....
is it possible?
Thanks anyway Smilie

Thank you - it was very useful! Smilie So, now I have one level, but there was 2 of them... Is it possible to use regex in index function? For example, how to find Aaaa->Bbbbb and insert it before 3rd level?

Ideas like:
awk 'if (index ($0, "[A-Za-z+->A-Za-z+]")>0) {print base $0} else {base = $0}} ' filename
does not work...

or maybe it is not necesarry to use regexes...
