I made a shell script from your commands and it didn't work, I think
because of the slashes and the missing psace (although these are just
guesses because I created my own script from scratch and those are the
differences).

I did a find command at the console and then CPed it into a shell
script. So anway:

find /home/mike -name "*.mp3" -print >> .playlist
find /home/mike -name "*.ogg" -print >> .playlist

Seemes to work quite well. I dropped it into playlist.sh and made it
executable and bingo.

Hope this helps,
Mike
