i find myself doing things like this alot:
	ls -l `{du -a . | awk '{print $2}'}
	grep foo `{du -a . | awk '{print $2}'
given how often i do the bit inside the `{} i should
probably script it, but i havn't yet. i've found this to
be quite useful with lots of cases, so i've not gone
the "find" route rog suggested (which would make
it a bit more specific than i like).
