FIND ( 1 ) FIND ( 1 )
-print
-cpio device
-newer file
-inumn
-depth
( expression )
Always true; causes the current path name to be
printed.
Write the current file on device in cpio ( 4) format
(5120 byte records).
True if the current file has been modified more
recently than the argument file .
True if the current file is inode number n.
Always true. Must begin the expression. Forces
a depth first search: find does not apply the
expression to a directory until it has applied the
expression to all the files in the directory. This
is useful with cpio ; see the example in cpio(1).
If the example were done without -depth, the
modification dates on the copied directories
would not match their originals.
True if the parenthesized expression is true
(parentheses are special to the shell and must be
escaped).
J
The primaries may be combined using the following operators (in
order of decreasing precedence):
1) The negation of a primary (! is the unary not operator).
2) Concatenation of primaries (the and operation is implied by
the juxtaposition of two primaries).
3) Alternation of primaries ( -o is the or operator).
EXAMPLE
To remove all files named a.out or •.o that have not been
accessed for a week:
find / \( -name a.out -o -name '* .o' \) -atime +7 -exec rm {}
\;
FILES
jetcjpasswd, jete/group
