| 1 | Just to warn you... New findutils releases are starting to get a lot |
| 2 | more picky about being given correct arguments. The correct way to |
| 3 | invoke find to avoid problems is as follows: |
| 4 | |
| 5 | find [paths] [options] [rules] [actions] |
| 6 | |
| 7 | The [paths] part is mandatory, and the [options] (such as -maxdepth) |
| 8 | should come *before* any [rules]. |
