If your intent is to copy the found files into /home/shantanu/tosend, you have the order of the arguments to cp reversed: find /home/shantanu/processed/ -name ‘*2011*.xml’ -exec cp “{}” /home/shantanu/tosend \; Please, note: the find command use {} as placeholder for matched file.
You can use str.isalpha(). For example: s=”a123b” for char in s: print(char, char.isalpha()) Output: a True 1 False 2 False 3 False b True
egrep -ir –include=*.{php,html,js} “(document.cookie|setcookie)” . The r flag means to search recursively (search subdirectories). The i flag means case insensitive. If you just want file names add the l (lowercase L) flag: egrep -lir –include=*.{php,html,js} “(document.cookie|setcookie)” .
This answer posted by Todd helped me. find . -maxdepth 1 -type d \( ! -name . \) -exec bash -c “cd ‘{}’ && pwd” \; The \( ! -name . \) avoids executing the command in current directory.
Use find with a wildcard: find . -name ‘mystring*’
This might be best illustrated with an example. Let’s say that find turns up these files: file1 file2 file3 Using -exec with a semicolon (find . -exec ls ‘{}’ \;), will execute ls file1 ls file2 ls file3 But if you use a plus sign instead (find . -exec ls ‘{}’ \+), as many filenames … Read more
find /path/to -regex “.*\.\(jpg\|gif\|png\|jpeg\)” > log
why not just find . -not -iwholename ‘*.svn*’ The -not predicate negates everything that has .svn anywhere in the path. So in your case it would be find -not -iwholename ‘*.svn*’ -name ‘messages.*’ -exec grep -Iw uint {} + \;

Not only the recursion depth of find can be controlled by the -maxdepth parameter, the depth can also be limited from “top” using the corresponding -mindepth parameter. So what one actually needs is: find . -mindepth 1 -type d
