Find specific files only in current directory...not sub directories AIX

Hello, I am using ksh93 (/usr/dt/bin/dtksh) on Solaris and am stuck when trying to use find with the -prune option.

I need to search a directory (supplied in a variable) for files matching a certain pattern, but ignore any sub-directories.

I have tried:

Code: find ${full_path_to_dir_to_search} -type f -name "*.dat" -print -o -type d -prune which produces no output.

I can use ls -ld */ to list all the directory entries in the current directory. Is there a similarly easy way to just list all the regular files in the current directory? I know I can use find

find . -maxdepth 1 -type f

or stat

stat -c "%F %n" * | grep "regular file" | cut -d' ' -f 3-

but these do not strike me as being overly elegant.

Chance is that there will be empty files (zero byte files) and empty directories (that doesn’t contain any files) in your system. In this article, I will show you how to locate these empty directories and files and delete them.

The command you can use is the "find" command. To find empty directories in the current directory, you use the option -empty: find .

hi I used find command to find some file names as per input from user. I used it for current directory. It was working fine. Now I tried with giving some other directory path. Its giving issues. Here what I tried. Script will take input from user say 1_abc.txt, find the file and print list.

I have a large directory of music files that is often changing as files and directories come and go.

Hi,

I have more than 1000 directories under one directory (lets says under /home/). Sub directories are like A1 to A100,B1 to B100 etc..

Here my problem is I need to find the files older than 10 days in the directories which starts with A*.

I tried some thing like this which is not working.

Code: find .

Can anyone come up with a unix command that lists

all the files, directories and sub-directories in the current directory

except a folder called log.?

Thank you in advance.

Hi, How can i find the types of files in some directory(~/mydir) that start with word "fix" then followed by number 3, 4, 7 or 8 and end with .ccp or .in

How can i find the total number of files that are larger than 5000 bytes in specific directory?, I can do it by current directory by using find -size +5000c -print | wc -l but how to find in specific directory ex: /home/user

Thank

This question is kind of a phase II to the first question I posted at here

I have a directory that contains a bunch of sub-directories, .zip files, and other random files not contained within a sub-directory.

I'd like a command line script to remove all sub-directories from within the parent directory, but keep all zip files and loose files that don't belong to any sub-directories.
