A different take on directorywalking

[Malte Brill]

Hi all,

as the livecode solutions tend to become rather slow if there is a certain amount of nesting involved, I want to come up with a shell alternative to directorywalking. something like

— [snip]
set the hideconsoleWindows to true
switch
  case „win“ is in the platform
    put "dir " & tPath && "/b /s /A-D" into tShellCommand
  — tPath needs to be a Windows path using backslashes and needs to be quoted
  break
  case „linux“ is in the platform
    — todo
  break
  case „mac“ is in the platform
  — todo
  break
end switch
return shell(tShellCommand
—[snap]

This returns for example:
C:\Users\Malte Brill\Documents\archaeodox\2013-480\dokumentationsschritte\10\2013-480_ds_10_1.JPG
C:\Users\Malte Brill\Documents\archaeodox\2013-480\dokumentationsschritte\10\2013-480_ds_10_2.JPG
C:\Users\Malte Brill\Documents\archaeodox\2013-480\dokumentationsschritte\11\2013-480_ds_11_1.JPG
C:\Users\Malte Brill\Documents\archaeodox\2013-480\dokumentationsschritte\11\2013-480_ds_11_2.JPG
C:\Users\Malte Brill\Documents\archaeodox\2013-480\dokumentationsschritte\11\2013-480_ds_11_3.JPG
…

where tpath was:
"C:\Users\Malte Brill\Documents\archaeodox\2013-480\dokumentationsschritte“

Can anyone help me with the Linux and Mac counterparts. Ideally with the same output?

Best,

Malte
