perl -p -e "s/^(File::Find::find)/my \$cwd = Cwd::cwd();$1/"

 Thanks, that's a good suggestion.

I'm trying to put something together for...how do you say...lusers, who aren't that sophisticated, and probably couldn't type that in given 10 tries. Ultimately I'm going to make a standalone that they can give options too, like: 

foo . -mtime -7 -ls

Though now that I think about it, that might be too much for them also.

I've now got a version of find2perl that works for -ls and -exec in windows (but is unchanged elsewhere). I've tried this in the find2perl output to reduce typing on the luser's part: 

open(STDOUT,'|perl') or die "...";

but the command prompt returns before the final output starts and the first line of output doesn't line up. Reopening STDOUT and printing a newline seems to fix this.
