Re: problem with bash

Well, if you really want something equivalent to 'ls *', you'd need to
do something like
find . -maxdepth 1 \( -name .\* -o -print \) | xargs ls
The "-maxdepth 1" is to not descend recursively into directories, and
the "-name .\*" is to avoid listing hidden files/directories (which
would not be matched by the '*' glob). The "-type f" is actually
wrong, as '*' will match directories as well.
Also beware that ls may be an alias, and xargs will run the actual
executable in the path...
Huh?!? Just type ls! You don't need anything else and certainly not
something as complicated as what you propose.
