xargs

ls words | xargs echo | tr ' ' ':'

I was told this code is for linux machines. i have a sun solaris web server, should this code for my server too?

i did not build my server or know much about linux/solaris coding. i pretend to know how to code in php, which is where this question started in.

thanks for any help

if your question is if this code works, yes it will.

one comment on your code:
"|xargs echo" is imho totally useless here.
ls words | tr ' ' ':'
is the same result.

you are saying it will work for a sun solaris server?

i changed the code to how you said it should work and it didn't work for me. still not generating the actual list of the files in directory words.
