As I pointed out in comment#5: "I didn't find the place, where it does. What I found in man find was '-name pattern' instead of 'patterns', but this is not a clear statement imo. But also: in 'info find', node 'Primary Index' I fond '-name Base name patterns' with s! " I argued, that it is not written, that it accepts only one argument, while you argue, that it is not written, that it accepts more than 1 argument. Is this a standard (that normally there is only one argument, if not specified else) or why do you assume so? Then I would be sorry for having taking your time because of this. > -the insufficient non-bug explananation in man find [...] > __________________^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ > sorry, I don't understand what you mean by this. > Would you please point to a place there you think is not > sufficient (and suggest a better wording, ideally as a Git > patch)? I meant, that in "man find" the part "non-bug" assumes, that "of course" the there given example will not work. No more explanation why. This is not enough. have a nice day, kalle
