Hi,
This is a common newbie problem, but I don't know quite how to
frame a google search...
$ ls -1 |grep ' '
foo bar
foo snafu
$
$ for f in `ls -1 |grep ' '`;
> do
> echo "$f";
> done
foo
bar
foo
snafu
Naturally, I don't want that!!! What's the magical sequence of
characters to get it to print out the complete file names?
Thanks
