Subject: automatical xargs (or zargs)
Date: Fri, 12 Aug 2005 22:28:58 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050812202857.GE11840@ay.vinc17.org> (raw)

Is there a way to do the following?

When globbing generates a line that is "too long" (configurable
by the user), the command is automatically replaced by one using
xargs or zargs.
