- FileFind
-
- Description
-
- FileFind--whereis-like find file utility written completely in
- REXX.
-
- Usage
-
- [D:\] filefind [PATH\]FILENAME ... [ /h /b /? ]
-
- FileFind finds files under PATH if that is specified, or the
- current directory (= `.') if it isn't. Multiple command line
- arguments are allowed.
-
- Options:
-
- /h find hidden and system files too
- /n brief format: display only file names
- /? display help page and quit
-
- Examples
-
- Note the prompt (ie. current directory info) in the following
- examples!
-
- [D:\os2] filefind *.inf
- ; Finds all *.inf files under D:\os2
-
- [D:\] filefind \os2\*.inf
- ; Does the same as the preceding
-
- [D:\] filefind c:\bin\*.exe
- ; Finds all *.exe files under C:\bin
-
- [D:\os2] filefind DLL\*.inf apps\*.inf
- ; Finds all *.inf files under D:\os2\DLL and D:\os2\apps
-
- Note
-
- FileFind displays file dates and times in the national format,
- which is found with a SysIni() call to `os2.ini'. However, this
- seems to be causing troubles now and then--sometimes SysIni()
- returns insane results, like `0' as the date or time separator.
- IF YOU ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THIS, remove all date and time
- formatting lines from the program, and change the following
- line:
-
- ok = SysFileTree(Word(find, i), files, "fst", "*--*-")
-
- to
-
- ok = SysFileTree(Word(find, i), files, "fs", "*--*-")
-
- filefind will then display dates and times in the American
- formats (MM/DD/YY and HH:MM{am|pm}, respectively) which are
- insane but work fine.
