Hi everyone.

I just tried to list all the audio-cds that I have already converted
into ogg format. I looked at the ls, which should do the job I guess,
however I am running into minor problems

ls -R /path/to/music > mymusic.txt

lists recursively all the subdirectories in my music path as expected.
What I want is, that only the existing subdirectories are listed, but
not the actual content of the subdirectories.

Looking at the man page didn't help me much. I found the -d option,
which just doesn't seem to work with the -R option. So

ls -d -R /path/to/music -> mymusic.txt

just writes the subdirectories in the path, but not recursively. Any
hints? Thanks a lot in advance...

Greets,
Bernhard
