Guys,

        How do I call 'ls' from within a script without it also returning the
contents of the present working directory? Here is the line from my script:

ls -al /usr/lib/libGL.so*

Here is the output:

# ./linux/scripts/showLibConfig
250sata.pdf 7857.pdf Bannykh-ArizMedBoard.pdf Bannykh-TennMedBoard.pdf
bin broadway.pdf david.asc Desktop Documents linux log Pictures
public_html westlaw-renewal_20071129.pdf /usr/lib/libGL.so Config

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     10 2007-11-09 16:19 /usr/lib/libGL.so ->
libGL.so.1
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     12 2007-12-16 16:25 /usr/lib/libGL.so.1 ->
libGL.so.1.2
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root     27 2007-12-16 16:25 /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2 ->
/usr/X11R6/lib/libGL.so.1.2
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 391344 2007-09-21 20:34 /usr/lib/libGL.so.1.2.sav

as you can see, it looks like 'ls' is evaluated before 'ls -al
/usr/lib/libGL.so*' gets evaluated. How do I fix this?
