July 23, 20187 yr Same as ones with an extension? Please restate with more detail on what you are trying to accomplish, because I am not aware of any limitations for deletion that are caused simply by a file with no characters after the period.
July 23, 20187 yr Unless I read this wrong, the OP wants to run the deletion from a terminal in which case its probably going to be find . -maxdepth 1 ! -name "*.*" -delete Please do not add -delete until you are ready. Edited July 23, 20187 yr by ken-ji
July 23, 20187 yr Author Oh no, it also finds directorys.. how to exclude dirs? Good i tried frist without delete edit: Ok, i foudn it: find /mnt/user/downloads/completed/ -type f ! -name "*.*" Thanks! Edited July 23, 20187 yr by nuhll
July 23, 20187 yr Good that there was no accident. You may want to be more precise with the request next time
July 23, 20187 yr Author Would have been only some empty directorys, but... better safe then sorry lol yeah i thought its self explinatory, but i guess, if you dont into it, you cant know whats meant... lol its hard to descripe what you mean in a different language then you speak.
