find without recursion

Question

I think you'll get what you want with the -maxdepth 1 option, based on your current command structure. If not, you can try looking at the man page for find.

Relevant entry (for convenience's sake):

-maxdepth levels
          Descend at most levels (a non-negative integer) levels of direc-
          tories below the command line arguments.   `-maxdepth  0'  means
          only  apply the tests and actions to the command line arguments.

Your options basically are:

# Do NOT show hidden files (beginning with ".", i.e., .*):
find DirsRoot/* -maxdepth 0 -type f

Or:

#  DO show hidden files:
find DirsRoot/ -maxdepth 1 -type f

I believe you are looking for -maxdepth 1.

If you look for POSIX compliant solution:

cd DirsRoot && find . -type f -print -o -name . -o -prune

-maxdepth is not POSIX compliant option.

Yes it is possible by using -maxdepth option in find command

find /DirsRoot/* -maxdepth 1 -type f

From the manual

man find

-maxdepth levels

Descend at most levels (a non-negative integer) levels of directories below the starting-points.

-maxdepth 0

means only apply the tests and actions to the starting-points themselves.
