How to write a file list with foreign names to a csv file in the terminal?
I am relatively new to Linux. I have some files with names in foreign languages in my terminal folder. On the terminal when I do 'ls' i see the list on the right in the picture below.
When I do ls -t | tail -n +2, I see the real characters like in the picture below.
I would like to write the list of filenames in original characters as in the 2nd picture to a csv file? Is there a way to do that? I have found very similar questions here but the filenames were not foreign on those questions. Here how it looks like if i use ls -t | tail -n +2 > files.csv
But I would like to have the list with original names because I need to get meta info from an existing file based on original names where filenames are not in any order and number of files is also different. thank you in advance
