Wow that is amazing, thank you. Is there a way to keep the directory structure or adjust the formatting?<br><br><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 31 July 2011 12:24, Harold Lee <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:harold@hotelling.net">harold@hotelling.net</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<div>find directory_name -type f \( -name '*.jpg' -o -name '*.jpeg' -o -name '*.gif' \) | while read filename ; do echo "<a href=\"$filename\">$filename</a>"; done<br>

<font size="4">I have a lot of club media files (pictures, videos, and sound) on a drive running Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. I want to share these media files on the Internet. I figure the best way is to make a webpage with links that correspond to the files, so clicking on a link downloads the file or plays it in browser. <br>
<br>The problem is there are thousands of these little files. I tried manually creating links by copying and pasting, but it's taking me to long. <br><br>I tried webmagick, but I found it only works on picture files. Otherwise, it looks to be exactly what I want. <br>
<br>Any suggestions?<br></font>
