Doing a: perl -p -i -e s/nagual.st/nagual.nl/g; *

You should escape the * that you pass to find:
-name \*.html
Most probably.

I'm trying to find all files with a modification time older than three
weeks ago. In reading the find man page and searching Google, it seems
the time returned by 'ls -l' is mtime. Thus I construct the following
command:
find . -not \( -newermt 3w \) -exec ls -l {} \;
But it returns files

I want to recursively search a directory and return files that end in

I've tried various placement of quotes, parenthesis, etc. but can't
seem to find the right way to do this.

Hi Drew,
Find is one of those classic commands for confusing people. One just gets
used to it over time. The behaviour of find varies

Thank you to everyone for all your help! Something must have 'puked' during
my nightly cvsup of the ports tree. Every directory under /usr/ports had a

Thanks again!

Hi Drew,
This should find all files created or modified on 25th October:
find / -mtime 6 -ls -o -ctime 6 -ls
(As today is 31st October which is 6 days after 25th. You may need to
widen your search a little with a seperate search with 7 as the paramter
as 6 may not catch files that were created
On October 25, my /usr partition lost nearly 50% of it's available space.
This disk hasn't had any significant size changes since I built the system
as it basically serves as a gateway.
I'm trying to use the find command to determine what may have been written
to the disk but am not having any
31 matches
