FINDORULE(1p)						User Contributed Perl Documentation					     FINDORULE(1p)

NAME
       findorule - command line wrapper to File::Find::Object::Rule

USAGE
	 findorule [path...] [expression]

DESCRIPTION
       "findorule" mostly borrows the interface from GNU find(1) to provide a command-line interface onto the File::Find::Object::Rule heirarchy
       of modules.

       The syntax for expressions is the rule name, preceded by a dash, followed by an optional argument.  If the argument is an opening
       parenthesis it is taken as a list of arguments, terminated by a closing parenthesis.

       Some examples:

	find -file -name ( foo bar )

       files named "foo" or "bar", below the current directory.

	find -file -name foo -bar

       files named "foo", that have pubs (for this is what our ficticious "bar" clause specifies), below the current directory.

	find -file -name ( -bar )

       files named "-bar", below the current directory.  In this case if we'd have omitted the parenthesis it would have parsed as a call to name
       with no arguments, followed by a call to -bar.

   Supported switches
       I'm very slack.	Please consult the File::Find::Object::Rule manpage for now, and prepend - to the commands that you want.

   Extra bonus switches
       findorule automatically loads all of your installed File::Find::Object::Rule::* extension modules, so check the documentation to see what
       those would be.
