2. what you were trying to do
Find every regular file in the upper level directory with a maxdepth of 1 to
apply on them a call to grep
3. the exact command line that you used
$ find .. -type f -maxdepth 1 -exec grep -Hin rasoir {} \;
4. what you expected to happen
Get my result or at least a meaningful error message, instead of that I got a
very curious error (or rather warning) message saying that I was not using
-maxdepth after -find.
5. precisely what did happen.
Here is the exact message :
$ find .. -type f -maxdepth 1 -exec grep -Hin rasoir {} \;
find: attention : vous avez spécifié l'option -maxdepth après un argument
qui n'est pas une option -type mais les options sont positionnelles (-maxdepth
affecte les tests spécifiés avant aussi bien qu'après). SVP spécifiez les
options avant les autres arguments.
so I used LC_ALL ennvironment variable to get the English message and as a
result I got to understand what was the real meaning of the message
$ LC_ALL=en_US find .. -type f -maxdepth 1 -exec grep -Hin rasoir {} \;
find: warning: you have specified the -maxdepth option after a non-option
argument -type, but options are not positional (-maxdepth affects tests
specified before it as well as those specified after it). Please specify
options before other arguments.
Which is what I did and got the expected result without any warning just by
exchanging the position of -maxdepth and -type. In order to make the message
more meaningful in French I suggest the use of ',' or '(',')', or even
rewriting the sentence.
