Subject: noglob + find
Date: Tue, 12 Oct 2010 15:09:18 -0400 (EDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.LNX.2.01.1010121504210.21068@hp> (raw)

At some point recently, I gave in and tried 'noglob' (usually preferring 
to quote things explicitly, even if it caused occasional annoyance). 
But now I've run into trouble with:

alias find='noglob find'

$ find /tmp/tmp.* -name *.c -mtime -1
find `/tmp/tmp.*': No such file or directory

Is there a nice way to specify 'noglob'-like behavior for the arguments 
after the first dashed argument?  So that I can specify glob patterns as 
the directories, but not have to quote the 'find' patterns?

Best,
Ben
