If you actually mean there are no _directories_ listed, I don't know what's going on. It works for me, either running the script from the msys rxvt, or from the msys dos prompt (by running `sh script_path_and_name`). If you really do mean there are no _files_ listed, try adding `else echo $i is file`. BTW, they don't hurt, but you don't need any of those semicolons at the end of lines (;). You need semicolons to separate separate commands that you want to write on the same line. > > reagards Jan :-) > > > > ___ > > Qgis-user mailing list > > Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org > > http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user > > The syntax should be: > > for i in `ls xxx/*` > do > etc If you want to do that, why complicate things by using ls?

Re: [Qgis-user] help to list files by bourne-shell
You can also try it with a simple test: * for i in C:/Users/tappenbeck/Desktop/Project/* do [ -d "$i" ] && echo "$i" is directory done* Notice that because it is in a shell script and is broken into separate lines already, the semi-colons ";" have been removed. You only need semicolons when placing it in one line, like copy and pasting into a terminal instead of running from a script.

Hi Jan for i in C:/Users/tappenbeck/Desktop/Project/*; change to : for l in `ls C:/Users/tappenbeck/Desktop/Project/` ; enclosing a comand in back quotes will return the result of the command, & you want to return a list iof the contents of the folder, not the string which is the folder name. --- On Thu, 6/21/12, Jan Tappenbeck wrote: From: Jan Tappenbeck Subject: [Qgis-user] help to list files by bourne-shell To: "qgis-mailingliste" Date: Thursday, June 21, 2012, 2:36 AM hi ! i want to create a script for use in msys - but i am not a linux-user. i try to create this by a template: #!/bin/sh # Einfaches Beispiel for i in C:/Users/tappenbeck/Desktop/Project/*; do if [ -d "$i" ]; then echo $i is directory; fi; done but there will no files list - can anyone help me ? reagards Jan :-) ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user ___ Qgis-user mailing list Qgis-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/qgis-user
