I have a bunch of .au files I want to get rid but I don't want to hunt
them down in every darn sub directory. Suggestions?

Move into the top directory of that set

        find . -name "*.au" > manifest.txt

Scan manifest.txt with your favorite editor and look for stuff you wish to retain -- mv them into new name suffixes

Repeat the first step and make sure are happy for all listed there to go away

Run one more time then like this:

        find . -name "*.au" -a -exec rm {} \;

All done
