Find and basename not playing nicely

Question

I want to echo out the filename portion of a find on the linux commandline. I\'ve tried to use the following:

find www/*.html -type f -exec sh -c \"echo $(b         


        

Answer 1

Try this instead :

 find www/*.html -type f -printf '%f\n'

If you want to do it with a pipe (more resources needed) :

find www/*.html -type f -print0 | xargs -0 -n1 basename
