NAME
       oldfind - search for files in a directory hierarchy

SYNOPSIS
       oldfind [-H] [-L] [-P] [-D debugopts] [-Olevel] [path...] [expression]

DESCRIPTION
       The  oldfind  and  find  programs are functionally identical.  The only
       difference between them is the  implementation  internals  of  how  the
       filesystem is searched.  The oldfind binary has a recursive implementa‐
       tion while find uses fts(3).  The fts-based implementation will replace
       the  recursive  implementation  but for the moment both implementations
       are installed.

       The implementation which is installed as find on  this  system  is  the
       fts-based implementation, since the without-fts option was not passed
       to the configure script when findutils was built.
