Sorry, it doesn't work with spaces even with the quotes; if you don't have spaces in the directories/filenames, do ls -l --sort=3Dtime $(find /path -iname "*.pdf") If you have spaces, you need to set/restore IFS: S=3D${IFS}; IFS=3D$'\n'; ls -l --sort=3Dtime $(find . -iname "*.pdf"); IFS= =3D${S} Regards. --=20 Canek Pel=C3=A1ez Vald=C3=A9s Posgrado en Ciencia e Ingenier=C3=ADa de la Computaci=C3=B3n Universidad Nacional Aut=C3=B3noma de M=C3=A9xico
