Hi all,

I was interested to hear your thoughts on solving a practical problem I
have, while using only shell tools.. that is, not using Perl or Python
or what have you.

So, I have a list of random filenames in a text file:

        thing.mp3
        pants.txt
        yer.rtf
        others.html

These files do exist on my system, except they're scattered throughout a
directory tree hierachy, and there's no path info in my text file to say
where. 

I need to find the given files in the tree, then do stuff with them. For
instance, delete them.

Thanks!

- Andrew
