in thread File::Find considered hard?

Perfectly valid, but I don't think it does anything to damage the point I was trying to make.

I mean... even if xargs didn't have that option, you could do something like:

find -print0 | xargs -0 -l sh -c 'mv "$0" "$0".bak'
But that's just getting silly, and even further from the point. =D
