find .
find / -> is clear....

print -> just don't understand anyway..

grep -> is clear..

\ -> line continue is clear..

cpio -> copy file archives in and out; duplicate directory trees
cpio -p dest -> copy pass modus from one to another directory
cpio -d -> create directories as needed (must the dirs not exist?)
cpio -v -> print a list of file names as they are processed

for example, I just wanna copy all files without any extension to one dir with the subfolders - all files are in different folders but the subfolders are like same named, f.e. pics:

VAR=/pics
DEST=/new
cd
find / -type f | grep "$VAR" | grep -v "^[.].*[.].*$" | \
cpio -pdv $DEST

now any files without an extension from any subfolder called pics should be transfered to the folder new, not!?

like....

new/users/123/pics/qweq
new/users/3241/qqqqw/pics/daqwwe
new/var/.images/pics/sadas

thx...
