Another good variation on this is using grep. "grep -H" will put out the file name. HTH, Mark I’ve never really figured out xargs, so the version of the find command i use is this: find . -name .svn -exec rm -f {} \;

The braces cause the file name and path to be inserted, then you need to semicolon (escaped) to end the command. Another good variation on this is using grep. “grep -H” will put out the file name.
