Re: [wlug] how to find files with multiple suffixes

Eg this doesn't find anything

$find . -regex '.*\.(cpp|h)'

Because find(1) uses basic regexes -- you have to escape almost all metacharacters. find . -regex '.*\.\(cpp\|h\)' -- Regards, Aristotle "If you can't laugh at yourself, you don't take life seriously enough."
