dear all,

i tried using

        find /data/MP3 | xargs chgrp audio

to change the group of all my mp3's.   xargs was getting tripped up by
filenames with single quotes.  of course, i was able to get the group
changed with

  find /data/MP3 -exec chgrp audio \{} \;

but i'm curious whether i could've made xargs work.


is there a way to make xargs work on a group of filenames which may contain
single quotes?

pete
