Hey Marek,

Actually not.  Run this from the Terminal, and you'll see why:

 find /Applications/ -name "*.app"

For my purposes I wanted to be able to do this from 'find' in the Terminal, but 
its regular expression syntax is not sophisticated enough.  However I can use 
either BBEdit or the Satimage.osax to clean up the output.  (Eventually I'll 
know enough Perl to be able avoid using multiple tools.)

I also am trying to expand my knowledge of the more sophisticated functions of 
PCRE.
