Executing all scripts in /DIR except one
First i need to find all scripts directly under /DIR that end with ".sh" extension except "noallow.sh". That can be done with:

Code:
find /DIR -maxdepth 1 -name "*.sh"|grep -v "noallow.sh"

Now i want to run all the files output from the previous command.

The following code:

Code:
for filename in $(find /DIR -maxdepth 1 -name "*.sh"|grep -v "noallow.sh")
do
/DIR/${filename}
done

Can do the job. But i want to know can this whole thing be done by using find only with exec {}.

autom4te

AUTOM4TE(1)							   User Commands						       AUTOM4TE(1)

NAME

       autom4te - Generate files and scripts thanks to M4

SYNOPSIS

       autom4te [OPTION] ... [FILES]

DESCRIPTION

       Run  GNU M4 on the FILES, avoiding useless runs.  Output the traces if tracing, the frozen file if freezing, otherwise the expansion of the
       FILES.

       If some of the FILES are named `FILE.m4f' they are considered to be M4 frozen files of all the previous	files  (which  are  therefore  not
       loaded).  If `FILE.m4f' is not found, then `FILE.m4' will be used, together with all the previous files.

       Some  files  may be optional, i.e., will only be processed if found in the include path, but then must end in `.m4?';  the question mark is
       not part of the actual file name.

   Operation modes:
       -h, --help
	      print this help, then exit

       -V, --version
	      print version number, then exit

       -v, --verbose
	      verbosely report processing

       -d, --debug
	      don't remove temporary files

       -o, --output=FILE
	      save output in FILE (defaults to `-', stdout)

       -f, --force
	      don't rely on cached values

       -W, --warnings=CATEGORY
	      report the warnings falling in CATEGORY

       -l, --language=LANG
	      specify the set of M4 macros to use

       -C, --cache=DIRECTORY
	      preserve results for future runs in DIRECTORY

       --no-cache
	      disable the cache

       -m, --mode=OCTAL
	      change the non trace output file mode (0666)

       -M, --melt
	      don't use M4 frozen files

   Languages include:
       `Autoconf'
	      create Autoconf configure scripts

       `Autotest'
	      create Autotest test suites

       `M4sh' create M4sh shell scripts

       `M4sugar'
	      create M4sugar output

   Warning categories include:
       `cross'
	      cross compilation issues

       `obsolete'
	      obsolete constructs

       `syntax'
	      dubious syntactic constructs

       `all'  all the warnings

       `no-CATEGORY'
	      turn off the warnings on CATEGORY

       `none' turn off all the warnings

       `error'
	      warnings are error

       The environment variable `WARNINGS' is honored.

   Library directories:
       -B, --prepend-include=DIR
	      prepend directory DIR to search path

       -I, --include=DIR
	      append directory DIR to search path

   Tracing:
       -t, --trace=MACRO
	      report the MACRO invocations

       -p, --preselect=MACRO
	      prepare to trace MACRO in a future run

   Freezing:
       -F, --freeze
	      produce an M4 frozen state file for FILES
