Get cygwin from [link|http://www.cygwin.com/|here], then read [link|http://www.gnu.org/manual/findutils-4.1/html_mono/find.html|this].

Sometimes, the old ways are the best :-)

And in return, I'd like you to find (oh, pun!) for me a utility that will search for files by *attribute* on an NTFS volume - specifically, compressed and encrypted files.

New Causes me to recall a particularly powerful Attrib .bat
which in DOS - would lightning-quick, find a file anywhere on the drive; use wildcards to taste IIRC. Somewhere I have it around (not that I know how it would handle long filenames - nor that it applies to your query). Didn't need to serially parse directory structure.

It seemed to illustrate an untapped peculiarity of (?) perhaps the way attribs are dealt with in the lowest DOS er procedures..
