In what way they are better? I found 'find' to be quite capable, and find -exec grep '{}' \+ to be quite fast. In my opinion all those small utilities are pets of their authors and they solve their problems quite good... but not mine. GNU utilities are used by a huge number of people and solve much wider problems much better. Though not necessary in a much more elegant way ;-) Oleg. -- Oleg Broytman http://phdru.name/ p...@phdru.name Programmers don't die, they just GOSUB without RETURN. _______________________________________________ Python-Dev mailing list Python-Dev@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-dev Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-dev/archive%40mail-archive.com
