Is your system always slow when trying to 'find' the name of a file ?

Well, sometimes the most simple of scripts sure make life a lot easier.

These two small scripts were written is self-defense, because the slow speed
of the system I 'was using'.

I believe these scripts can speed-up the 'find' time of any UNIX/Xenix system.

----
fullpath:    Script to find the fullpath of all files on system, and
             store all those filenames in /usr/local/bin/fullpath.names

findname:    Script to locate any filename on system, pipe it through
             'more' in case there are many for one screen.

Since I run the crontabs/root entry at 3,6,10,15,18 hours, the system
filenames are always in touch with reality.  I have put these scripts
on about 10 systems and the 'administrators' use it all the time.

Just - Keeping it simple, sometimes is the best way.
