Hi,

I have a number of users who have been generating lists of files to run 
over on the fly.  Now that we have moved to xrootd, that doesn't seem 
possible.

Is there any script friendly way of generating directory listings?

Ideally, something like

	xrd hn ls '/foo/bar/quux/*.root'

would generate a list like

	root://hn//foo/bar/quux/one.root
	root://hn//foo/bar/quux/two.root
	root://hn//foo/bar/quux/three.root

The output that the xrd ls command produces can indeed be hacked to do 
this, but it isn't pretty.  Something closer to POSIX behavior would be 
much preferred.

Is there some other way of doing this that I am missing?

Thanks.
