What have I done? / do shell script mystery

  • Thread-topic: What have I done? / do shell script mystery

For a very long time I have relied on the calling  the Unix "find" command
through "do shell script" Suddenly it gives me only one (at best) file back.
So this:

do shell script "find '/Test' -iname  *.txt -type f"

Will only give one file back, even though the same command in the terminal
will behave correctly and return all the files

As far as I know I have done nothing whatsoever that I can relate to this,
but I may have changed some environment setting etc. without realizing that
it would have such an effect

can someone please point me in the right direction where to start looking
for the cause, and the cure, for I am at total loss myself, and getting
desperate


Thanks in advance

/ Richard
