BUT, if say there is a file called "test.cc" in the current directory, then find no longer correctly finds all files ending in ".cc", but, rather, all files called "test.cc". ---- I should remark that find works fine under the Dos prompt (COMMAND.COM)... ---- Hopefully my description of the problem can be reproduced on someone else's machine... If so, Is this a bug with find, or is this a mistake on my part? Cheers, Davin Pearson davin_pearson AT yahoo DOT com
