Yes, I agree, I never looked at that bit.

If you want files in that format, you will have to push it out of the find command more like this:-
Code:
ls -lrt `find . -type f \( -user abc134 -o -user xyz345 -o bce483 \)`

It's probably bad programming practice as the command line might get too long. Here's an alternate:-
Code:
find . -type f \( -user abc134 -o -user xyz345 -o bce483 \) | xargs ls -lrt

....but that might not work for lots of files as it breaks the input into manageable chunks so you will get several runs of ls -lrt with lots of files. You could therefore get several blocks of output sorted, but there will not be a delimiting line between them.
