Hi all

Any idea why below shell-command fails?

,----------- command
| M-! etags -a -I `find -iname *.py`
`-----------

,----------- output of the error message
| `find: No such file or directory
| *.py`: No such file or directory
`-----------

If I try "M-! find -iname *.py | etags -a -", I will get complain of "Access is 
denied".

'find' utility expect dir as first arg where it start look to files ))
And dont forget escape special shell chars like '*' ))

try 'find . -iname "*.py"'

Best regards!
