 Hi,

I'm searching on a way to 'limit' a find command to the first match.
For example :
find /var -type f -mtime +1
This lists ALL files in var older than one day..and gives a lot of
overhead because
i only want to find the FIRST file in that filesystem that's older than
one day..
 
Any ideas ?
 
Regards,
Guy
