in reply to Obtaining a list of files in a directory and subdirectory.

As an alternative, you could use ack. I used this:

ack -f --sort-files /path/to/dir

    you need -a switch ack -a -f --sort-files /path/to/dir otherwise you only get perl files (-a switch also ignored git/cvs... files/dirs)

    Alternatively you can use findrule - command line wrapper to File::Find::Rule 

    findrule /path/to/dir 
findrule /path/to/dir -file
findrule /path/to/dir -directory

    $ findrule . -directory -name ( Mouse* )
