  • I'm not sure what you mean by "part of the filename", and "path for all files in the folder". Do you mean that when you find a matching file, you want to print all the other files in the same folder of the file? What if there are multiple matching files at the same folder? Could you provide a practical example of a sample directory/file tree and the exact expected output? Commented Dec 15, 2021 at 12:21
  • e.g I have the following files /folder1/abca.vcf.gz /folder1/prrt.vcf.gz /folder1/mefv.vcf.gz and I want a txt that will have abca /folder1/abca.vcf.gz, prrt /folder1/prrt.vcf.gz, mefv /folder1/mefv.vcf.gz one line for each file... hope this is more clear... Commented Dec 15, 2021 at 13:23
  • First, please edit your question and add the relevant details. Second, do you mean that you want to see the filename without the extension? If that's what you mean, you also need to specify that in the question. The question should be clear so that anyone that reads it understand your exact intention, without having to go through the comments for clarifications. Commented Dec 15, 2021 at 13:30
