Folks,
Philippe pointed out that my mail client may havr munged the quotes in that
command line. It should be:
find /path/to/files -name fileinfo.php -exec sh -c 'test `cat {} | wc -l`
-ne N' \; -print
I should have run it through BBEdit's useful "Straighten Quotes" command
before sending! Sorry for the confusion.

I don’t know how to do it with BBEdit, but this shell command will
work:
`find /path/to/files -name fileinfo.php -exec sh -c 'test `cat {} | wc
-l` -ne N’ \; -print`
Replace `/path/to/files` with the path to your directory and `N` with
your “N”.
Hope this helps.

I would like to find multiple files (I know how to do that)
that don' have a specific number of lines (this I don't know).
More specifically, I have a directory which contains a large number of
subdirectories, each containing (among other things) a fileinfo.php
file.
I now that this fileinfo.php should have N lines. And I am trying to
locate
files that have more or less than N lines to search for potential
problems.
thanks for your help.
