Re: DSPAUT -- MIDRANGE-L

If the output file is an IFS file, it will get created automatically.And if there is a PF created using RCDLEN and with MAXMBRS(*NOMAX), amember can be named and will be created - you have to use path naming.


So you could do

ls > /qsys.lib/yourlib.lib/yourfile.file/newmbr.mbr

and the names of objects in your current directory will be listed inmember NEWMBR of YOURLIB/YOURFILE - and the member will be created if you used


CRTPF YOURLIB/YOURFILE MAXMBRS(*NOMAX) RCDLEN(256) MBR(*NONE)

The reason you have to create the PF is that a PF is considered acontainer or directory for the members, which are consideredequivalent to the files in a directory when processed with pathnaming as in QShell. In QShell, if the directory did not exist, thecommand would not direct output to a file in a non-existent directory.

ls with the -R option will recurse down the subdirectories. Addingthe -l ("small ell") option will give you the object owner and theUnix-style authority - the RWX stuff - for owner, group, and public.Not exactly the same as DSPAUT, which also has iSeries-type stuff in it.

There are some problems with this in large lists, IIRC, but it mightgive you some ideas. And do go get the QShell manual - it is underShells under Programming somewhere in InfoCenter, I believe.

find fbtest/* -name '*' > /mydir/myfile

These are essentially UNIX commands...there's a QSH reference in the Info
Center.
