I write some directories into startpoint.txt, and manually add '^@' behind
dirs. This symbol means '\0'.
Then, run find in command line:
[root@fedora /]# ls /home
file1 file2 startpoint.txt
[root@fedora /]# vim /home/startpoint.txt
/home^@
[root@fedora /]# find -files0-from startpoint.txt -name "file*"
/home/file1
/home/file2
find: ‘\n’: No such file or directory
[root@fedora /]# find --version
find (GNU findutils) 4.9.0
Linux: Fedora36
I think '\n' should not be processed, of course， '\n' can be removed. But
find can skip the '\n', I think.
so I added some code to handle this.
Others, I hope to see some examples how to use -files0-from in the manual
Let me know your opinions. ;-)
