- Organization: CoxNet User
Maybe this is something any native *nix speaker knows, but I'm stull
trudging up the learning curve.
If I do a (cygwin) find for some fragment of a filename, I get a whole
pile of hits in the /proc/registry area -
none of which is relevant. I would wish to tell find not to get
involved with the /proc filesystem at all.
Can that easily be done?
