How about something like find /usr -name ${extensions} | grep -vP '(?<!octave)mex' | ditto-for-oct The syntax isn’t vetted, but basically I’m saying that GNU grep’s Perl-compatible regex mode supports negative lookbehind, which seems like it should do what you want here. I’ve restricted it to /usr on the theory that DLLs will always be in /bin, /usr/bin, /usr/lib/*, or /usr/share/*, and that /bin and /usr/bin are the same on Cygwin. Are there any official Cygwin packages that put them elsewhere? -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
