Do any of your files have spaces in the names?  If so, find/xargs won't
process them correctly (if you have the GNU versions, you can use find's
-print0 operator and xargs's -0 flag to handle them correctly).

If not, you may need to add an explicit -print operator to your find
commands rather than counting on the default.

It's still much simpler to just use import.

It's not denial.  I'm just very selective about the reality I accept.
