Follow-up Comment #6, bug #15195 (project findutils):
A couple more misleading messages, even with your latest patches:
currently:
$ find \( -true -a ! \)
find: invalid expression; you have too many ')'
nicer:
$ find \( -true -a ! \)
find: expected an expression after '!'
currently:
$ find \(
find: invalid expression; empty parentheses are not allowed.
nicer:
$ find \(
find: invalid expression; I was expecting to find a ')' somewhere but did not
see one.
