A co-worker back in the late 1980's gave that "find" line. I'm curious: did "grep" have the -r option back then?
Maybe my memory is faulty but I don't remember grep ever not having the
'-r' option and I've been using it since the 1970s. In fact xargs
hasn't been around forever (though it's pretty old) and is certainly
younger than grep.

ok. Thank-you.
Hmmm... Unix really does go that far back. Linux goes back to 1991 according to wikipedia.
