Hi everyone,

I'm afraid ... It is driving me crazy again ... :-/

I'm trying to use

Code: 
find ./ -name XYZ -mtime +50

... without diving into any of the subdirectories, because he's supposed to find certain files in the main directory and move them into the subdirectories ...

But somehow ... Neither "-prune" nor "-depth" seems to be doing any good here ... And "-maxdepth" is unknown within ksh ... :-/

(I'd prefer not to have to change the shell ...)

Any ideas what I could do about it ?

Best Regards,
Thomas
