I'm trying to create a large etags file, but I haven't
had much luck.  Back in my unix days I used to run:

	etags `gfind . -name '*.[csh]' -print`

But this doesn't work on my NT system.  I have since tried:

	gfind . -name '*.[csh]' -print |xargs etags

This almost worked, but then I found out that xargs was
terminating my gfind output after a certain (large) amount
of filenames.  Can anyone offer some other suggestions?

Thanks

Pete
