It reads to me like a request for ls to produce null-separated output, so that $ ls -0 . will produce output like $ find . -print0 -maxdepth 1 Vitaly: note that both find's -print0 and xarg's -0 are GNU extensions, and are not portable. And, if find does the job, then why do you need a second tool to be able to accomplish the same thing? - -- Micah J.
