How do I redirect output from "find", either to a file or another command?
I'm trying to find out what happened to the rogue game that apt-get told me it installed, so I thought I would find the file. I went to the root and entered:
Code:
find -name "rog*.*"
I get a large number of lines saying my access is denied in various directories. I figure I'll practice my Unix commands by using grep to filter out these lines, so I enter:
Code:
find -name "rog*.*" | grep -v denied
Attempting to filter out all the lines in the 'find' output that have 'denied' in them. This doesn't work. I try
Code:
find -name 'rog*.*' > ~/output.txt
on the theory that, after the output gets into the file, I can filter it from there. But it still puts the output on the screen, and creates and empty file.
I'll go try to find my rogue installation another way, but would like to know how to use "find" this way as it's fairly commonly used. What am I doing wrong with it.
I searched for examples, but all the ones I found use "exec", and I didn't want to start down a rabbit warren of other ways to do things. If I find out this is just impossible, that find doesn't work the way other unix commands used to work, then I guess I'll have to.

but

return the same result
