-print0
True; print the full file name on the standard output, followed by a null character (instead of the newline character that `-print' uses). This allows file names that contain newlines or other types of white space to be correctly interpreted by programs that process the find output. This option corresponds to the `-0' option of xargs.
From the man page for GNU xargs:
Quote:
--null, -0
Input items are terminated by a null character instead of by whitespace, and the quotes and backslash are not special (every character is taken literally). Disables the end of file string, which is treated like any other argument. Useful when input items might contain white space, quote marks, or backslashes. The GNU find -print0 option produces input suitable for this mode.
Combining the two:
Or, much much simpler, and works across all platforms:
Every time we build an executable the date and time are put into the file, I need to run checksum on just the working lines.(IE, no header files)
Is this even possible, if so how would I go about it?
I am using a HP-UX server any help you can give me will be greatly appreciated.

Hi all,
So I have a binary file and I need to generate an expected EEPROM checksum for it. Ideally, I would like to input the file (with the path) and output a computed checksum. Ive been using (cksum file1) with no avail and I was just curious as to whether there is such thing as EEPROM cksum,... (1 Reply)

Hi,
I have a space delimited text file but I only want to change the first space to a tab and keep the rest of the spaces intact. How do I go about doing that? Thanks! (3 Replies)
Hello All,
I have path

cksum
cksum(1) General Commands Manual cksum(1)NAME
cksum - print file checksum and sizes
SYNOPSIS
[file ...]
DESCRIPTION
The command calculates and prints to standard output a checksum for each named file, the number of octets in the file and the filename.
uses a portable algorithm based on a 32-bit Cyclic Redundancy Check. This algorithm finds a broader spectrum of errors than the 16-bit
algorithms used by (see sum(1)). The CRC is the sum of the following expressions, where x is each byte of the file.
+ x^8 + x^7 + x^5 + x^4 + x^2 + x^1 + x^0 x26 + x23 + x22 + x16 + x12 + x11 + x10 + x7 + x5 + x4 + x2 + x1 + x0
The results of the calculation are truncated to a 32-bit value. The number of bytes in the file is also printed.
Standard input is used if no file names are given.
is typically used to verify data integrity when copying files between systems.
EXTERNAL INFLUENCES
Environment Variables
determines the locale to use for the locale categories when both and the corresponding environment variable (beginning with do not specify
a locale. If is not set or is set to the empty string, a default of "C" (see lang(5)) is used.
determines the locale for interpretation of sequences of bytes of text data as characters (e.g., single- verses multibyte characters in
arguments and input files).
determines the language in which messages are displayed.
If any internationalization variable contains an invalid setting, behaves as if all internationalization variables are set to "C". See
environ(5).
RETURN VALUE
Upon completion, returns one of the following values:
All files were processed successfully.
One or more files could not be read or another error occurred.
If an inaccessible file is encountered, continues processing any remaining files, but the final exit status is affected.
