Subject: Clarification on Replacing {}
Date: Wednesday, 02 Sep 2020, 23:33:32

Could you clarify what you mean with the following statement:

   * Replace every {} that is, or is embedded in, an argument to -exec by the full name of the current file.  (The time for the replacement operation must grow no worse than quadratically in the length of the command passed to system().)

What's an example -exec statement in which this would be applicable?
