This question possibly has a simple answer. I could not find it in the
manuals, hence I decided to post.
In using the FIND command, is there a way to specify the maximum depth to
which one is interested in traversing the directory tree ? The -DEPTH
option merely helps one select between postorder and inorder traversal
(hence its values are TRUE or FALSE).
In particular, how does one specify that one is not interested in any files
beyond those in the current directory ?
Thanx in advance.
