- I need a utility that would perform a recursive tree copy but only
- operates on a selected file set for transfers. The specific problem
- concerns a complicated source tree with Makefiles embedded at various
- sub-directories throughout the tree.
-
- What the utility might do is behave like "cp -r" and "grep make *"
- where any file prepended with "make" would be copied along with the
- attached subdirectory.
