What's up with find? I've got so used to
fdthat I don't understand what this is referring toWhen you want to find something in a different path than your current one you have to supply it as the first argument. When you try to do
find -name foo.bar /pathit will complain that the path should be the first argument. So it knows what you're trying to do and instead of doing it it just complaints.That's already the friendly variant. Traditional find has a mandatory path as first argument, so to find in the current directory you need to do
find .It also doesn't know if it really is a path - it just prints that as a likely error. You might just have messed up quoting an argument.
