How about that:

Code:
for i in test/* test/.*
do
    if ! [ -e "$i" ]
    then
        continue
    fi

    fname=${i##*/}
    if [ "$fname" = . ] || [ "$fname" = .. ]
    then
        continue
    fi

    echo "$i"
done

I very vaguely remember that you posted something similar on IRC a while ago, which showed some very unexpected ways to screw this up. 😁

Is it valid to print `test/foo`? Or should it be just `foo`? The latter opens another can of worms.
