Search for executable files using find command

Question

What type of parameter/flag can I use with the Unix find command so that I search executables?

Answer 1

So as to have another possibility¹ to find the files that are executable by the current user:

find . -type f -exec test -x {} \; -print

(the test command here is the one found in PATH, very likely /usr/bin/test, not the builtin).

¹ Only use this if the -executable flag of find is not available! this is subtly different from the -perm +111 solution.
