Linuxnoob Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 Hi, I am pretty new to linux and dn't really have clue of how to do this problem that was given to me. The program that I am using is cygwin, an emularor to replace the actual Linux O/S. Ok here we go, I am supposed to create a script that will produce a text file that has a list of the files in the present working directory. I should be able to do the auto execution from the command prompt. *as hint, use redirection operators* I guess its ">" ------------- What i do know is that using vi text editor in cygwin you start off with #!bin/bash that's all could any of you help me out? I would really appreciate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkWater Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 Its a shame it won't work without some tweaking. Do you mean: ls -l $(pwd) > filelist ? You could technically take off the pwd part... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, but I figured Linuxnoob would need something to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
