    Just wanted to add the difference between \; and +. Basically when you use a + sign, it is like xargs, i.e. "chmod file1, file2, file3". On the other hand \; means you want to loop over each file like "chmod file1; chmod file2; "chmod file3;". Most of the time you can use them interchangeably though as most unix commands like chmod accept multiple files in input.

    In case anyone curious, by changing semicolon (;) to plus (+) in -exec rm {} ';' make the command efficient since by doing so command (in this example rm) run only once . In short, + sign activate the ability of find to combine the results of the search into an argument list for a single execution of the desired command. btw another great video #Corey.
