I want find to return all the files in each directory to exec. That is,
I want to do something like:
find /path -type d -exec command {}/\* \; -print
so that command will be run on each file, one directory at a time. I
cannot seem to get this to work. I cannot cd to the directory, since I
need to be somewhere else when the command is run. Any help will be
appreciated. Please reply directly to me. Thank you, -David-
