law> find / -name \*.lnk -exec grep -is "Documents and Settings" {} \;  -print

C:\bin\find.exe: *** WFSO timed out for after longjmp.

I was trying to find all links that referenced "Documents and Settings", since
I moved users to 'home'.

My first attempt was very sad:
law> find / -name \*.lnk -exec grep -is "Documents and Settings" {}
;  -print|
while read file; do
ed "$file" <<HERE
s/Docments and Settings/home/g
w
q
done
HERE
;
done

Gotlots of weird errors: as well as lots of symlinks that weren't converted
because they were in UCS-2 (and I run UTF-8):

Lots of weird stuff.

So I thought I'd just first try breaking down the steps and going from there:

Just got tht weird error message:
C:\bin\find.exe: *** WFSO timed out for after longjmp.

So any idea what this meant?


Obviously, these are a mess of mostly Win .lnk's any easy ideas on conversion?
