Message-ID: <6216a59ca1c9f5ca6089a591aa990d30@collyer.net> (raw)
I'm just curious: what sorts of things did you do with find that you
find impossible or too awkward to do with du? The main things I can
recall using find for were finding set-id files (not an issue on Plan
9), finding core files (ditto), or finding files older than some date
(I use "du -ta" for that). I haven't missed find.
