Here are a couple of links to the information that actually helped me create some bash completion functions.

How do I set up bash completion for command arguments?

Writing your own Bash Completion Function

foreach (split(/\n/, $str)) {
  if (/START/../END/) {
    next if /START/ || /END/;
    print;
  }
}

without ( and the need to escape it:

find . -not -name "*.exe" -not -name "*.dll"

and to also exclude the listing of directories

find . -not -name "*.exe" -not -name "*.dll" -not -type d

or in positive logic ;-)

find . -not -name "*.exe" -not -name "*.dll" -type f 

This is the HP-UX Porting and Archive Center - pre-built packages for HP-UX 11i

Single Directory:

find . -path ./misc -prune -o -name '*.txt' -print

Multiple Directories:

find . -type d \( -path dir1 -o -path dir2 -o -path dir3 \) -prune -o -print
