find(1)

+
find <start> [opts]
+    -maxdepth <n>        maximally search n dirs deep
+    -type <t>            match on file type
+                           f    regular file
+                           d    directory
+    -user <name>         list files owned by username
+    -name <glob>         list files matching glob (only filename)
+    -iname <glob>        list files matching glob case-insensitive
+
+    -exec <cmd> {} ;     run cmd on each file
+    -exec <cmd> {} +     run cmd with all files as argument
+
+
+

Depending on the shell the <glob> must be quoted or escaped. The +exec modifier characters ; and + also may need to be escaped.

Example -exec option

+# x .
+# x ./.github
+# x ./book
+# x ./src
+# x ./.git
+# x ./docs
+
+> find . -maxdepth 1 -type d -exec echo x {} +
+# x . ./.github ./book ./src ./.git ./docs
