1. find's output is mostly for another program's input, not for tty. 2. ls does --hide-control-chars by default only if isatty (STDOUT_FILENO). > Here's a patch. Opinions?

I'd make it like ls, i.e. when descriptor is a tty; also I'd add some option to enforce --hide-control-chars also for non-tty. -- ldv
