Hi Gull04,

I tested your variant with this...

Code:
stomp@box:~/tmp$ find a
a
a/a.wav
a/A.wav
stomp@box:~/tmp$ find ./ -name 'a.wav' -o -name 'A.wav' -printf '%h\n'
./a
stomp@box:~/tmp$

...and I'm wondering why I have only 1 result. I would expect 2 results, as I understand the command like this: "Search for a file name a.wav or A.wav and print the corresponding parent directory". So why only 1 result here?
