Guys,
If I repeat what Bharathi sent long ago please excuse me. I can't help it.
xargs is often used with the find command like this.
$ find /etc | xargs vi
is a simple way to edit all files under /etc recursively including
directories. This is better.
$ find /etc -type f | xargs vi
You can also remove all .svn or CVS files like this.
$ find . -type d -name CVS | rm -rf
or
$ find . -type d -name .svn | rm -rf
I will send UNIX commands. Not just linux ones.
Have a nice day.
-Girish
