Hello list; for some time I have been struggling with a script problem. What I want to do is scan a directory structure and re-create it without any files. When I download files I put them into my home directory and then later copy them to /mnt/DOWNLOADS I want to copy the directory structure of /mnt/DOWNLOADS into /home/mick without any files. Then I can put files where they belong without duplication. Periodicaly I burn /mnt/DOWNLOADS to CD for safety. I cannot figure out how to create the empty directory tree. I have tried various incantations of sed/cut/file and managed to destroy the file system on a test box! (I was root) Help would be appreciated. Thanks Mick M. ===== The glass is exactly twice as large as it needs to be. __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Win a $20,000 Career Makeover at Yahoo!
