List All Of Your Files

Macons, ah, no one here today. This is going to be a brief terminal lesson on how to, um, basically add a listing of every file on your computer to one file. That way, you'll be able to click “find” that file you're looking for, a specific one.

Okay, so I'm going to just open Terminal, so wait one second.

Okay, and then you want to do is you want to type the following command: CD Desktop. CD space Desktop. Put that in the description. Then you type—just make sure I'm in the right place. Now we can type the following command: LS space dash L capital R space / space greater than symbol. So that's shift period, and then let's call it file list dot txt.

It's going to list every file that I have permissions to read into file list dot txt. I've already made one just to demonstrate while it's loading, called files dot txt, and this will take a long time, by the way.

Anyway, here's files dot txt. This has every file on my computer in it, so you can see all these folders and applications, a few other things. There is a whole load of stuff you’ll see in here.

So yeah, so you'll get a few permissions denied here unless you're root, but I'm not root, so… Okay, so now this is going to take a very long time, so I'll just do a cut here.

Loads. So there we go, looks like it's created it here. So let's take a look. Yep, here it is. So here's the file list. Now I can click “find” for an application like—let's look for, say, intro introduction at HTML.

So you can click “find” through all your files till you find the file you want. That's pretty cool. It's just really nice to have every file on your hard drive in this one file.

So thanks for watching, Mac heads. Um, subscribe and goodbye.
