Hi Brad, the command you want is "find"

for example print all the files with a "goo" in their name
for the entire file tree starting at "/var" :

find /var -name '*goo*' -print

(Note: -print is actually redundant here.)


Do a man find and look for special file attribute matching stuff to
match on size.  I don't know the option to match on size off the top of
my head.
