Find Examples
Find by Size
Find all files over 50M
find ./* -size +50000k -exec ls -lh {} \;
Find and then perform inplace edit
find ./* -name '*.html' -exec perl -pi -e 's/this/that/' {} \;
Find by Age
Remove bounced messages that are older than 7 days from Majordomo announce lists (running as a weekly cron on the listserver -- and yes, I know, upgrade to Mailman is on the cards)
find ~majordom/virtual_mail/*/majordomo/bounces -name \
*.bounce.* -mtime +7 -exec rm {} \;
This works too, but now you're just being silly:
find ~majordom/*/*/*/bounces -name *.bounce.* -mtime +7 -exec rm {} \;
