Hello,
If all you want it to know if any files or directories exist then you
could do the following:
find . -type f -type d -print | wc -l
Then will provided a numerical total of the number of files plus the
number of directories located in the current directory.
Also the "find" command syntax does not suck, that is like say gawk is
only a good field separator.

Please can someone show me an example of looking if there are any files
and/or sub directorys in a directory, using a script. #!/bin/sh
