Copying file while adding preffix
Hi, Someone can suggest me how to recursively copy files from a given directory while adding preffix to the copies in destination dir? Thanks in advance for any suggestion(s). Andrei

mcp might work. In this package on my 9.2 system: mmv-1.01b-793 man mcp to see how it works. -- Bill

How about: for i in `ls`; do cp $i /some/directory/prefix.$i; done Tom Wekell

ls -A or else will list . and ..

And what does "echo $LS_OPTIONS" provide that may alter ls's output and/or "alias ls" for the same reason. -- Patrick Shanahan Registered Linux User #207535 http://wahoo.no-ip.org @ http://counter.li.org HOG # US1244711 Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery

echo $LS_OPTIONS -N --color=tty -T 0 alias ls='/bin/ls $LS_OPTIONS' I did an unalias ls and now works as expected. None of the options that were set should have had an effect on the output though. Thanks for the info as I didn't expect any alias for the ls command, the ones related yes, but not ls. -- Ken Schneider UNIX since 1989, linux since 1994, SuSE since 1998 "The day Microsoft makes something that doesn't suck is probably the day they start making vacuum cleaners." -Ernst Jan Plugge

Something else has it head stuck in there, then. My output from a bare 'ls' does *not* include ., .., or any of the .xxx files. -- Patrick Shanahan Registered Linux User #207535 http://wahoo.no-ip.org @ http://counter.li.org HOG # US1244711 Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery

Are you saying
ls -A | grep "\.\."
actually produces output on your system?
Then yes, it is broken
That's only true if the command is: env - /bin/ls -A |grep "^\.\.$" Otherwise and alias, shell procedure or intervening script could alter the options passed. Secondly, "ls" responds to some environment variables. Lastly, the unanchored grep command you specified would include a file such as "..foo" or "foo..bar". Randall Schulz
