Hi,
According to http://unixhelp.ed.ac.uk/CGI/man-cgi?ls, lower case r sorts the 
listing in reverse order.

Ls -r *.htm should do it.  The -r is recursively search directory paths
so be in the highest location and maybe better ls -r *.htm | less.

Hi all,

In Windows/DOS, I would use a command like:

dir index.php /s

To search my hard drive to find all files named index.php.  I am trying
to do this on my Mac in terminal as I have misplaced my website files
which are in the terminal - not in the Mac file system.  Not sure why
they don't show up in the Mac side of things but, can anybody provide me
a Unix command to perform this type of search?

Thx,
Jeff
