list of all files in Unix

[djoshi]

Can anyone tells a single UNIX command to generate a list of all 4ge files in the system along with path,date and time stamp of these files

Thx,

Hi,


Yes, it is possible. you can get this by doing this command

#ls -lR|more

it will full fill answer of your question and if you want all these file output record in a file, you can do:

#ls -lR > /systemfile

ls -lR *.4ge

would probably work more closely to what you desired.

HI,


As per Pete,
#ls -lR *.4ge

it will give you probabaly what you want! but you execute this command on "/" directory.

What's a "4ge file"?

Really? Have you tried that? Does it see
any "*.4ge" files in a subdirectory? Around
here, for example, looking for "*.c":

dyi # ls -lR
total 16
-rw-r--r-- 1 root sys 476 Feb 15 2010 junk.c
drwxr-xr-x 2 root sys 96 Aug 16 21:39 subdir

./subdir:
total 16
-rw-r--r-- 1 root sys 476 Feb 15 2010 junk2.c

But:

dyi # ls -lR *.c
-rw-r--r-- 1 root sys 476 Feb 15 2010 junk.c
dyi #

Perhaps more useful:

dyi # find . -name '*.c' -exec ls -l {} \;
-rw-r--r-- 1 root sys 476 Feb 15 2010 ./junk.c
-rw-r--r-- 1 root sys 476 Feb 15 2010 ./subdir/junk2.c


Note that here "*.c" is quoted to keep the
shell from expanding the wildcard file name.


Of course, on an OS with a different design,
this sort of thing can be easier:

alp $ dire /date /size [.test...]*.txt

Directory ALP$DKA0:[SMS.TEST]

FRED.TXT;1 1596 22-DEC-2007 00:09:21.02

Total of 1 file, 1596 blocks.

Directory ALP$DKA0:[SMS.TEST.B]

BB.TXT;1 1 1-MAY-2008 14:57:25.77

Total of 1 file, 1 block.

Directory ALP$DKA0:[SMS.TEST.C]

CC.TXT;1 1 1-MAY-2008 14:57:33.66

Total of 1 file, 1 block.

Grand total of 3 directories, 3 files, 1598 blocks.

But that's VMS DCL, not a UNIX shell.
