Thanks for the information. Normally I dislike "experimental programming" because I never can tell (a) whether the behavior I'm seeing is *specified* or is just how this particular implementation happens to behave, and (b) what it will do in cases I haven't tried. But in this case, I think I can guess the specification, and yes, it's quite odd. It's also essentially undocumented... Unfortunately, I can't build the latest 'find' until I update my system, so I'll have to put off dealing with this. Dale
