The 'sorting filenames' thread reminds me that I can't get the xargs to
work. I tried a couple of things:
$ find . -print -ok rm {} \; | xargs grep txt
$ fine . -print -ok rm {} \; | xargs 'grep -e txt'
$ find ~/ -print -ok rm {} \; | xargs grep -f test.txt
and none worked I just an list of invalid grep options.
Already read the man pages, TIA for any help on using this command.
