When I'm on the command line in the *nix world, I prefer to use the locate command for finding files and directories over the find command.

The first time you try and use locate, you'll probably be presented with something like:

locate: no database file /var/db/locate.database.

You need to build the locate database before using the command. Here's how you do it on the Mac....

sudo /usr/libexec/locate.updatedb

It will take a while to complete but you'll be able to use the locate command afterwards.
