What is a good criterion for "dependant on ps to be there"? If you state
that, you could do something like a script based on, say:
for filename in `find /usr -perm +0444 ! -type d -print`
do
if [ <your $filename screening criterion here> ] then
echo $filename > <output list>
fi
done
Actually that's a command line, not a script. &8-)
DISCLAIMER - consider that pseudo-bash, with workabilty an exercise to the
reader.
