19 Well, I think that by the parenthesis Mr. Wexler wanted to show he had
20 tried all the variations, not that it is the exact command. I was also
21 very pissed off when I had to discover that the "find manual page" isn't
22 very correct. It never made clear that "-ctime 3" means "now plus 3
23 days" and "-ctime -3" means "now minus 3 days".
