Support multiple search patterns in target-shell find command
Hi!
I came across a usecase where I want to check an image for multiple file extentions at once.
After several attempts, I gave up trying and will now check for them one by one.
It would be nice to use some kind of regex within the file command at target-shell.
E.g. find (**.txt|**.png)
Thanks in advance!
Perhaps you could try to use target-fs <target> walk / and using command line tools to achieve this.
The find command already has a -name and -iname argument (similar to the find you'd find in a real terminal). Both of these currently already accept a glob pattern.
While a single glob is currently too limiting to achieve exactly this, normally you'd use -name '*.txt' -name '*.png' with the real find, however it looks like our implementation doesn't currently accept multiple -name/-iname arguments, so that's something that could definitely be improved. I'll rename this issue to exactly that.
