How do I return only file names from the find command?
With basename:
find . -type f -exec basename {} \;
Evilsoup mentioned that what was posted doesn't work for spaced file names. So instead you could use:
find . -type f -print0 | while IFS= read -r -d '' filename; do echo ${filename##*/}; done
EDIT:
Using sed
:
$ find . -type f | sed 's/.*\///'
Using the xargs command, as mentioned in the response of @nerdwaller
$ find . -type f -print0 | xargs --null -n1 basename
