i'm a perlgeek so i'm familiar with its style of regular expressions but when i'm trying to use one of those regular expressions in a find command, i'm not having much luck here's what i want to do:
find /home/ -name "(.Apple(.*))|(Network Trash Folder)|(TheVolumeSettingsFolder)" -print0 | rm -rf to get rid of all the stuff placed by netatalk before i back it up now this works: find /home/ -name ".Apple*" -print0 | rm -rf so it looks like i'm not understanding bash's use of regexps anyone care to help out here? _________________________________ daniel a. g. quinn starving programmer thinking is easy, acting is difficult, and to put one's thoughts into action is the most difficult thing in the world. - johann wolfgang von goethe _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
