What were you trying to do?
I have a couple aliases that let me clean up backup files and the like.
Here's my alias to remove ~ files in all my subdirs:
alias pur 'find `\ls | grep -v OldFiles` -name \*~ -ok /bin/rm {} \;'
What's wrong:
Here's what it's doing today:
plug% pur
< /bin/rm ... >?
< /bin/rm ... >?
What should have happened:
It should have echoed the path/filename
