Re: [Wlug] list filenames within directory > output to text file? SOLVED
Wow! Perfect! Thanks to everyone!
I used:
(in the directory I need output from)
ls -1 > /home/EJ/Directory/CurrentList.txt
That text should now drop into an XL doc or something, from where we can print it.
Beautiful. Thanks guys!

Is there an app or command line tool which can copy all filenames within a certain directory, and output these filenames to a plain-text file?
I need to list about 400 filenames, then drop these into an xl doc, in order to sort.
Don't need to know permissions or anything else.
I think sort might do it < http://ss64.com/bash/sort.html >, but probably I need help creating a command that will list only the file names, which I can then copy/paste to an xl doc.
I am running Debian. I have one Squeeze and one Lenny here.
Thanks extremely, Liz J
