listing directory contents WITH path to files

| Hi,
I have looked through the arguments for 'dir' and 'ls' on a redhat 8.0
linux system and can't seem to figure out how to generate output that
includes the file and the path to that file. I'm using BASH. I need:
/path/to/file1.txt
/path/to/file2.txt
instead of (ls -1):
file1.txt
file2.txt
Any ideas? Surely this is possible, thanks in advance as always.

ls /path/to/*
If you want to see the dot-files as well:
ls /path/to/.* /path/to/*

Oops, you should use the -d option in both of those, to avoid having it
open up subdirectories.

ls -d $PWD/*
For shells which do not maintain the $PWD variable:
ls -d `pwd`/*

I used the "ls /path/to/*" option to solve the problem - thanks to
everyone. I had actually tried "ls /path/to" but that doesn't work -
you have to add the asterisk...I'd never have thought that. Cheers,
Rob
