AFAIK, the 9th field of ls -l is the filename, so your "ls -l path |
awk '{ print $9 }'" is better replaced with simply "ls -1".
Then this becomes (untested):
<exec executable="ls" outputproperty="content.txt">
<arg value="-1" />
<arg file="../../../jobs" />
</exec>
But I'm sure there's a way to do it portably in pure Ant too, without
forking to ls. --DD
