Re: get list of file names from different subdirectories

Let's say the files are in "/home/anandhi/main".

You could do something like this:

   cmd = "find /home/anandhi/main/a* -type f -print"
   fili = systemfunc(cmd)

You can also use variables:

   dir = "/home/anandhi/main"
   cmd = "find " + dir + "/a* -type f -print"
   fili = systemfunc(cmd)
