Gvfsfind locates files within directory hierarchies.
GVFSFind is a useful file searching tool that operates on URLs through the gnome-vfs instead of the local file system. This project is inspired by the Unix find utility and searches through a directory hierarchy.
One of the most significant advantages of GVFSFind is its versatility. For example, you can print all directories on the FTP server by running 'gvfsfind.py --type d --print.' Additionally, you can use the 'gvfsfind.py ssh://skipper/srv/movie --type f -name ".*.vob" --exec "gnomevfs-copy %u ."' command to copy all files ending with .vob from the host skipper's directory /srv/movie, including its sub-directories.
GVFSFind's latest release, Version 1.1, has several useful features. A makefile has been added to simplify release, and the release is now packaged as a tar.gz archive. The application now supports filenames that include #, and you can use it as a Python module. Overall, GVFSFind is an excellent tool for managing and searching through files on a URL-based system.
