And if you’re invoking a new shell each time to launch the command, that overhead gets worse.īut sometimes-depending on what you’re trying to achieve-you may not have another option. There’s a CPU load and time penalty for repeatedly calling a command when you could call it once and pass all the filenames to it in one go. -w: Any options that you want to pass to the command must be placed immediately following the command.-exec wc: We’re going to execute the wc command on the filenames that are matched with the search string.-type f: We’re only looking for files, not directories.-name “*.page”: We’re looking for files with names that match the “*.page” search string.The find command is recursive by default, so subdirectories will be searched too. : Start the search in the current directory. The command is made up of these elements. This will count the words in the matching files.

We can use ls to see the archive file that is created for us. The tar utility will create an archive file called “page_.” tar -cvzf page_: This is the command xargs is going to feed the file list from find to.
This means that that filenames with spaces in them will be processed correctly. Directories will not be listed because we’re specifically telling it to look for files only, with -type f. The print0 argument tells find to not treat whitespace as the end of a filename. name “*.page” -type f -print0: The find action will start in the current directory, searching by name for files that match the “*.page” search string. The command is made up of different elements. name "*.page" -type f -print0 | xargs -0 tar -cvzf page_ We’ll run this command in a directory that has many help system PAGE files in it. This is a long-winded way to go about it, but we could feed the files found by find into xargs, which then pipes them into tar to create an archive file of those files. We can use find with xargs to some action performed on the files that are found. That’s “almost the same” thing, and not “exactly the same” thing because there can be unexpected differences with shell expansions and file name globbing. This achieves almost the same thing as straightforward piping. To address this shortcoming the xargs command can be used to parcel up piped input and to feed it into other commands as though they were command-line parameters to that command.
