It "finds" ok, just something later goes wrong: IntermediateAlgebraText $ find . -name "*.tex" | xargs ./book.tex ./bookenv.tex ./chapter1/chapter1.tex ./chapter1/ section1.tex ./chapter1/section2.tex ./chapter1/section3.tex ./ chapter2/chapter2.tex ./chapter3/chapter3.tex ./chapter3/junk.tex ./ chapter3/section1.tex ./chapter3/section2.tex ./chapter3/ section3.tex ./chapter3/section4.tex ./chapter3/section5.tex ./ chapter4/chapter4.tex ./chapter5/chapter5.tex ./chapter6/ chapter6.tex ./chapter7/chapter7.tex ./chapter8/chapter8.tex Aha!
