find: missing argument to -exec

Question

I was helped out today with a command, but it doesn\'t seem to be working. This is the command:

find /home/me/download/ -type f -name \"*.rm\" -exec ffmpeg -         


        

Answer 1

Try putting a space before each \;

Works:

find . -name "*.log" -exec echo {} \;

Doesn't Work:

find . -name "*.log" -exec echo {}\;
