# basic 'find file' commands
# --------------------------
find / -name foo.txt -type f -print             # find regular files under / with name foo.txt
find / -name foo.txt -type f                    # -print is the default action, and may be omitted
find . -name foo.txt                            # search under the current dir, and all types
find . -name "foo*" -type d                     # wildcard name-matching, and only directories
find /opt /usr /var -name foo.scala -type f     # search multiple dirs
find . -iname foo                               # case-insensitive: foo, Foo, FOo, FOO, etc.
