Demystifying "find" and "find -exec" ...Lil' Linux Lesson!
Has the internet told you Linux' "find" command is too scary to use? Well, they're wrong. Linux' "find" command - also found in lots of other *NIX systems - is a critical tool to learn.
In today's Lil' Linux Lesson, I'll be demystifying the "find" command, and covering how it works with the "-exec" option, which I promise will make your life easier as a sysadmin, Linux user, or just any nerd who likes to play with the terminal.
Lastly, this video wouldn't be possible without my monthly sustaining supporters on Patreon and Ko-Fi. Members get a bunch of cool perks- if my unsponsored videos help you, I appreciate your consideration!
