How about making this a nice bash executable. #!/bin/bash find . -maxdepth $1 -name "*.$2" -exec echo "{}
" \; > list_$2.html Now you can enter 2 variables to make a custom page for each file type. eg: [~]# list_tree 2 pdf This will create the file 'list_pdf.html' of only the pdf files in the current directory and one directory underneath.
