Not sure if I'm missing it, but I'm looking on the find man page, but can't find it.
Here is what I'm doing
How do I tell man to find all files matching that pattern, but only ones that end with a numeric character. I thought it was \d but maybe I'm entering it wrong when I do it. I don't want it to find any that don't end in a number.
Is it possible for find to match on multiple arg's. Basically, I would like to be able to match on name and atime. Basically I want something like:
find . -atime +31 <AND> -name *.log -exec rm -f {} \;

All,
For some reason I can't figure out why I can't wildcard my find statement to check for anything with a wildcard after. I can before the -name but not after.
ie. find . -name *test works
but find . -name test* gives me the error: find: paths must precede expression
Usage: find ... (1 Reply)

pod::abstract::filter::find
Pod::Abstract::Filter::find(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Pod::Abstract::Filter::find(3pm)NAME
Pod::Abstract::Filter::find - paf command to find specific nodes that contain a string.
DESCRIPTION
The intention of this filter is to allow a reduction of large Pod documents to find a specific function or method. You call "paf find
-f=function YourModule", and you get a small subset of nodes matching "function".
For this to work, there has to be some assumptions about Pod structure. I am presuming that find is not useful if it returns anything
higher than a head2, so as long as your module wraps function doco in a head2, head3, head4 or list item, we're fine. If you use head1 then
it won't be useful.
In order to be useful as an end user tool, head1 nodes (...) are added between the found nodes. This stops perldoc from dying with no
documentation. These can be easily stripped using: "$pa->select('/head1')", then hoist and detach, or reparent to other Node types.
A good example of this working as intended is:
paf find select Pod::Abstract::Node
