When I update the find database (/usr/lib/find/updatedb) and run find 'word' I get no response. This worked in 2.0. Has anyone run into this same problem? -- ---- Jerry jerry@gristle.com

You have to supply wildcards now... I personally believe it's a bug, it
should default to the old operation if you supply an argument with no
wildcarding.
% find "*word*"
