I know that, but I use Midnight Commander for all my file management needs. 99% of the times it is much easier to enter my search criteria in MC - executables being the exception (or I haven't figured out how to do it yet in MC). Also searching with your example on a mounted NTFS or FAT32 formatted USB drive, means everything is executables. > And nothing prevents you from naming your > nix executables with the .exe extension. I know that too, but I wanted something to distinguish between a Linux, FreeBSD and Windows executable all lying in the same directory. Before, I used .exe for Windows, and .elf for Linux. But now that I use FreeBSD too, .elf doesn't distinguish between Linux and FreeBSD. So Waldo's idea might just do the trick. Application is "foo" foow.exe - Windows fool.exe - Linux foof.exe - FreeBSD (or "b" for FreeBSD) Anyway, I'll play around with this idea.
