Operating Systems Linux Red Hat Fast yet simple way to navigate directories Post 302631433 by Scrutinizer on Friday 27th of April 2012 10:06:50 AM

It seems to me that the use of quoting would be necessary. For example sc /etc *scripts will only give the desired result if no such pattern happens to exist in the current directory or you may get unexpected results, so sc /etc '*scripts' will be preferable.

Also, sc / somedir will probably take a long time, no?
