Editing Find (Unix) (section)

===Search all but one subdirectory tree===
<syntaxhighlight lang="console">
$ find / -path excluded_path -prune -o -type f -name myfile -print
</syntaxhighlight>
This searches every directory except the subdirectory tree ''excluded_path'' (full path including the leading /) that is pruned by the <code>-prune</code> action, for a regular file whose name is ''myfile''.
