Thanks for your help. I have found that using the read command also works with spaces and can take the output of find and convert it to a variable. The only issue I have found is mencoder will not convert a file with a space. I may have to convert teh spaces to _ for this script to work consistently. find /myth/recordings/ -maxdepth 1 -name \*.mpg -ctime -1 ! -mmin -1 -print | while read i -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
