Hi folks,

I need help to find the files which has extensions like .txt, .job, and .tcl...etc at the single shot.... actually i have used

find . -name '*.txt' ----- to do this,
If i need to get .job files, again i need to use this with pattern *.job.....

But i don't want to use again and again with the different pattern....
I need to get all those files at the same time...

Is there any single command to do this....?


Wating for your reply ASAP....

find . -name '*.txt' -o -name '*.job' -o -name '*.tcl'

find -E . -regex '.*\.(txt|job|tcl)'

Thanks Quintet....

But now, when i try to use this.. i am facing one problem
i.e. Find stops searching when it finds some file which has got no permission ...

ERROR looks like this..

find: cannot read dir /auto/DEVELOPMENT_USERS/tests/Infra/: Permission denied

But i have to collect all files from this directory except files which don't have permission.....

How to make find to continue its job.... So is there any solution.?
Pls respond..

try adding 2>/dev/null at the end of the command to avoid all these unwanted outputs. Hope this helps.
