suggestion for a new recursive directory ls

Hi folks,

One of my favorites is

        ls -ld `find /some/dir -print`

It creates a much better readable output than "ls -R".

Its shortcomings are clear: 2 many arguments on the command
line, takes an awful lot of time to execute, problems with
space chars, etc. Surely this command line could be optimized.

I would like to suggest to implement a new recursive directory
feature in ls itself, and to introduce a new command line
option ("ls -e"?).


Just a suggestion, of course. Keep on your good work

Harri
