It's an interesting concept, but find should not itself modify the filesystem unless the user has explicitly requested this (e.g. via -delete, -exec etc.). Your script also leaks the two temporary files.
I recall that http://savannah.gnu.org/ also has a similar feature request for findutils. Perhaps you might take a look at that and find a way to implement this in C (i.e. as a patch to find) which doesn't modify the filesystem. Thanks, James. _______________________________________________ Bug-findutils mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-findutils
