Personally, I like ls's coloring and DIR's output format, but whatever works. | |||

At least, GNU ls is the one that's all colorful. ls can show a lot more information than dir, though I suppose it's because Unix filesystems are magnitudes more sophisicated than DOS. | |||

By default, however, ls provides jack shit. dir shows enough to be useful.
And to be honest, I like the *.* format better than the unix "We have no extensions, LOL" format. (edited by /home/xkeeper/ on 11-05-06 11:46 PM) |

Originally posted by Xkeeper/ Uh, listing a directory provides nothing useful? I fail to see your logic. Originally posted by Xkeeper What you mean, is that Unix doesn't have any low-level filesystem structures splitting up a filename. Doesn't mean extensions don't exist. Also, when you're searching for *.*, it should be assumed that you're searching for everything with a dot (.) in the filename, whereas * means everything. |

*.* signifying the xxxxxxxx.xxx (not nessacarily 8.3) format in FAT/NTFS, not the search method.
And as far as I can tell, very, very rarely does Unix-style files have extensions... unless the whole file IS the extension, like ".thaccess" or ".bash_rc". |

I have extensions on almost everything, it's good to know what kind of content it is without needing to use file(1) or something to find out what kind of data a file holds
Filenames that start with a dot, are called hidden files, because unless specified, most programs won't display them unless you tell them to display hidden files |

The hidden flag is pointless on a multiuser operating system with permission bits. Hidden files are better suited towards configuration things you don't normally want to see. Some filesystems like ext2 or reiserfs have a hidden flag, though it's nearly useless. I don't see how any of this has to do with keeping "filenames that make sense", at least Unix lets you use many characters that Win/DOS restrict you from for little reason (usually archane reasons, like keeping compatibilty with 1970s CP/M applications, real sensible). | |||

This reminds me of grade 6 when I would hide files on my floppy disk by making a big tree, each folder containing another 6 folders with random one-letter names. The files were in /C/O/F/F/E/E (this was a Mac). Trick was the last /E was a 7th hidden folder.
Of course, you could simply view the file tree and see it all... Also see my "Real name" in my profile. Hey, there's a fun idea; switch Name and Real Name fields for a while. Originally posted by /c:/dos/run Funny, I could swear we had a long discussion on AIM in which you insisted file was the way to go. |

how does one do a recursive search on UNIX? i can never get the find syntax to work | |||
FreeDOS + Giant Red Koopa Legion: freedos = fritos Since: 11-17-05 From: Seattle Last post: 6432 days Last view: 6432 days |

Probably through a program called find(1). Such a weird name for the task. | |||

Originally posted by FreeDOS I said I could never get the find syntax to work perhaps syntax is the wrong word to have used, arguments maybe? |
