I have got the following problem with find:
Suppose I want to find all my files ending
with ".cc", so I go into BASH and type:
find . -name '*.cc'
This works fine as long as there are no .cc
files in the current directory. BUT, if say
there is a file called "test.cc" in the
current directory, then find no longer
correctly finds all files ending in ".cc",
but, rather, all files called "test.cc".
----
I should remark that find works fine
under the Dos prompt (COMMAND.COM)...
----
Hopefully my description of the problem
can be reproduced on someone else's machine...
If so, Is this a bug with find,
or is this a mistake on my part?
