By faster I mean hours (IFS) compared to minutes (Windows). Even faster downloading if you know the set and its not a large number of files.

To find file names matching pattern: find . -name "*.sql"
To find file names matching pattern in name and text pattern within: find . -name "*.sql" -exec grep -l 'ABCDE' {} \; To find file names matching pattern in name and text pattern within using REGEX: find . -name "*.sql" -exec grep -l '.*[a-z]' {} \;
The link to the 7.3, docs.

But honestly, if you are not going to make this part of a compiled program, just share a folder and use windows CMD or PowerShell. I did a find over a 100 files or so 1.25 gig and it was faster using Windows than QSHELL.
Findstr in CMD/Powershell
Select-String Powershell

Is there an easy way, either from a system command line or a QShell command line, to find a STMF with a given name in the IFS (preferably in a subdirectory of the current directory)? Something analogous to WRKOBJ in the QSYS.LIB file system, or the "find" command in *nix?

(And I've given up on the Twinax thing, and will pursue LAN Console when I have the time and energy to do so.)
