NAME

pfind − find files in projects

SYNOPSIS

pfind [−l] [−P pdirname] [−T typexpr] file ... 

DESCRIPTION

Pfind descends recursively through a project hierarchy seeking files. 

OPTIONS

−lList in long format, giving the full pathname of file. 

−P pdirname
Specify a project other than the current working project. If pdirname is a project directory, pfind will search only that directory. 

−T typexpr
Only search project directories corresponding to boolean type label expression, typexpr. 

EXAMPLES

If the file ‘core’ exists in the project directory ‘work’ of the current working project ‘spms’, the command ‘pfind core’ will print:

...^work/core

and the command ‘pfind -l core’ might print something like:

/usr/pjn/spms/work/core
