in thread Deleting old files from directory

I use an explicit pipe to xargs instead of using the built in delete action, because that way it is easier to check I am deleting the correct files, as I can use ls on the end of the xargs command instead of rm.

Another way to handle spaces in filenames is to configure find to separate output with nulls instead of spaces, and then have xargs expect those nulls.

find <directory> <conditions> -print0 | xargs -0 ls -l
