How to Find files in subdirectory?
I am trying to find all DAT files in a subdirectory named IN. I do not know the entire path.
For example: /stage/<?>/<?>/IN/file.DAT
I am using the find command without success:
find /stage -name IN -a -name '*.DAT' -print
What is the correct logic and syntax? Thank you for the help.

file::find::object::rule::procedural
File::Find::Object::Rule::Procedural(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation File::Find::Object::Rule::Procedural(3pm)
NAME
File::Find::Object::Rule::Procedural - File::Find::Object::Rule's procedural interface
SYNOPSIS
use File::Find::Object::Rule;
# find all .pm files, procedurally
my @files = find(file => name => '*.pm', in => @INC);
DESCRIPTION
In addition to the regular object-oriented interface, File::Find::Object::Rule provides two subroutines for you to use.
"find( @clauses )"
"rule( @clauses )"
"find" and "rule" can be used to invoke any methods available to the OO version. "rule" is a synonym for "find"
Passing more than one value to a clause is done with an anonymous array:
my $finder = find( name => [ '*.mp3', '*.ogg' ] );
"find" and "rule" both return a File::Find::Object::Rule instance, unless one of the arguments is "in", in which case it returns a list of
things that match the rule.
my @files = find( name => [ '*.mp3', '*.ogg' ], in => $ENV{HOME} );
Please note that "in" will be the last clause evaluated, and so this code will search for mp3s regardless of size.
my @files = find( name => '*.mp3', in => $ENV{HOME}, size => '<2k' );
^
|
Clause processing stopped here ------/
It is also possible to invert a single rule by prefixing it with "!" like so:
# large files that aren't videos
my @files = find( file =>
'!name' => [ '*.avi', '*.mov' ],
size => '>20M',
in => $ENV{HOME} );
