Simultaneous searching for files (names matching certain criteria) in several directo
Hello everyone,
My OS is AIX 5.2
I would like some help in getting command syntax that does the following:
1. Searches simultaneously several directories downward;
2. Checks every subdirectory in each directory (and so on...) for file names that contain certain characters such as “~”, start or end (or both) with “# “sign, start with “tset”;
3. Displays these files first with the option of deletion;
4. Or: one command for displaying and another for deleting
Thank you to all responders.

dist::zilla::role::filefinderuser

Dist::Zilla::Role::FileFinderUser(3pm)			User Contributed Perl Documentation		    Dist::Zilla::Role::FileFinderUser(3pm)

NAME

       Dist::Zilla::Role::FileFinderUser - something that uses FileFinder plugins

VERSION

       version 4.300020

DESCRIPTION

       This role enables you to search for files in the dist. This makes it easy to find specific files and have the code factored out to common
       methods.

       Here's an example of a finder: ( taken from AutoPrereqs )

	 with 'Dist::Zilla::Role::FileFinderUser' => {
	     default_finders  => [ ':InstallModules', ':ExecFiles' ],
	 };

       Then you use it in your code like this:

	 foreach my $file ( $self->found_files ) {
	   # $file is an object! Look at L<Dist::Zilla::Role::File>
	 }

ATTRIBUTES

   finder_arg_names
       Define the name of the attribute which will hold this finder. Be sure to specify different names if you have multiple finders!

       This is an ArrayRef.

       Default: [ qw( finder ) ]

   default_finders
       This attribute is an arrayref of plugin names for the default plugins the consuming plugin will use as finder.s

       Example: "[ qw( :InstallModules :ExecFiles ) ]"

       The default finders are:

       :InstallModules
	   Searches your lib/ directory for pm/pod files

       :IncModules
	   Searches your inc/ directory for pm files

       :MainModule
	   Finds the "main_module" of your dist

       :TestFiles
	   Searches your t/ directory and lists the files in it.

       :ExecFiles
	   Searches your distribution for executable files.  Hint: Use the Dist::Zilla::Plugin::ExecDir plugin to mark those files as executables.

       :ShareFiles
	   Searches your ShareDir directory and lists the files in it.	Hint: Use the Dist::Zilla::Plugin::ShareDir plugin to setup the sharedir.

   method
       This will be the name of the subroutine installed in your package for this finder.  Be sure to specify different names if you have multiple
       finders!

       Default: found_files
