Is there a way to restrict FIND command's search path to only the specified directory and NOT TO scan its subdirectories.
Any help would be more than appreciated.

Hi,
I have a file with about 60 lines of path:

xml::writer::string
String(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation String(3pm)
NAME
XML::Writer::String - Capture output from XML::Writer.
SYNOPSIS
use XML::Writer;
use XML::Writer::String;
my $s = XML::Writer::String->new();
my $writer = new XML::Writer( OUTPUT => $s );
$writer->xmlDecl();
$writer->startTag('root');
$writer->endTag();
$writer->end();
print $s->value();
DESCRIPTION
This module implements a bare-bones class specifically for the purpose of capturing data from the XML::Writer module. XML::Writer expects
an IO::Handle object and writes XML data to the specified object (or STDOUT) via it's print() method. This module simulates such an object
for the specific purpose of providing the required print() method.
It is recommended that $writer->end() is called prior to calling $s->value() to check for well-formedness.
METHODS
XML::Writer::String provides three methods, "new()", "print()" and "value()":
"$s = XML::Writer::String-"new([list]);>
new() returns a new String handle.
"$count = $s-"print([list]);>
print() appends concatenated list data and returns number of items in list.
"$val = $s-"value([list]);>
value() returns the current content of the object as a scalar. It can also be used to initialize/overwrite the current content with
concatenated list data.
NOTES
This module is designed for the specific purpose of capturing the output of XML::Writer objects, as described in this document. It does
not inherit form IO::Handle. For an alternative solution look at IO::Scalar, IO::Lines, IO::String or Tie::Handle::Scalar.
