I had forgotten that ls -R formats its output differently than when it is non-recursive. I think "find" is cool but I am not familiar with some of the more advanced arguments, such as "-exec {}" etc... someone put on a whole presentation on "find" at a LUG I was a part of at UMass once, but I was unable to make that meeting. I will have to /usr/bin/find some time to read the man page.
