Did you know? On Linux you can observe the file descriptor positions using `/proc/<pid>/fdinfo/<fd-number>`
man7.org/linux/man-pages/man5/

You can use that to observe long-running file processing jobs' progress. But there are tools that format this properly; Debian (/Ubuntu) packages `progress` a tool that does just that:
github.com/Xfennec/progress

It can snoop for coreutils processes, or just watch an arbitrary pid:

`progress --monitor --pid $(pidof -s lbzcat)`

man7.orgproc_pid_fdinfo(5) - Linux manual page

Where is the #HTML file in my #home directory??

`find . -path "./." -prune -o -type f -iname ".html"`

oh. okay!

Aww. but I need it to be sorted by something maybe. Hmm.

`find . -path "./.`✴️`" -prune -o -type f -iname "`✴️`\.html" -printf "%T@ %Tc %p\n" | sort -n`

Oh! Hey! That's ***excellent***!

paths and iname need to have the asterisk in there.
✴️ for demonstration

🥥 Eye'm indecisive, Nick, and haven't given my heart fully to any particular Linux distro even though Eye've been an amateur for Linux since 1998.
That's why it's fun for me to have a copy of Ventoy with a half dozen or so distro ISOs to boot from just to be able to change things up if Eye wish.
Also, Eye have been watching and enjoying YOUR Linux videos for years. 🥥
