Hi:
     Learned from Wikipedia :   xargs (short for "extended arguments") is a
command on Unix and most Unix-like operating systems.

     Why isn't it called exargs, but xargs.  Would love to know what was
considered at the time.

It saves one char of typing - remember everybody is lazy - and disk space. :-)

Have a nice day,
Berny
