Re: Find all JPEG files in a directory

with Perl you can use File::Find. But you should be able to do this from the command line (or script):
find /path_to_start_from -name *.jpe?g 2>/dev/null > output.txt
[download]

find /path_to_start_from -name "*.jp{,e}g" 2>/dev/null > output.txt
[download]

(I didn't check the command itself, but that should be close)

Update:
Updated shell command (to what should work on Linux - untested because I'm on AIX)

I don't know about your `find` command but mine doesn't do that - I think you'll need to use `grep`: `find ../images \| egrep '\.jpe?g$'` [download] alternatively if just one directory level is required then you could `ls` - with `bash` you can do: `shopt -s extglob; ls ../images/*.jp?(e)g; shopt -u extglob` [download] /J\	[reply] [d/l] [select]

You're right on that one... this is supposed to be supported, but I can't get it to work on AIX: `find . -name "*.jp{,e}g"` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

I think you might need to use single quotes around the argument to `-name` lest it get expanded by the shell before it gets passed to `find` /J\	[reply] [d/l] [select]

.jpe?g The shell might have something to say about that... (Actually, Bourne-style shells will still pass it through in the likely event that nothing matches that glob, but it's not very safe.) edit: And the only way to get the match you want from `find` is to use something like: `find dir -name \.jpg -or -name \*.jpeg`	[reply] [d/l] [select]
