FIND returns different results in script
When I execute this line at the command prompt I get a different answer than when I run it in a script? Any ideas on how to resolve? I'm trying to find all files/dir in a directory except files that start with the word file.
Once I get this command to work, I will add the "delete" part to the command. Just trying to make sure I have all the right files listed first.
COMMAND LINE
svdw1234 : find . -mtime -1 ! -name file\*
.
./test_purge
svdw1234 :
SCRIPT
+ find . -mtime -1 ! -name file\*
.
./test_purge
./test_purge/file_test_purge_subdir.txt
./file_sqr_test.txt
./file.txt
+ return_code=0
Thanks,
Barbara
