SOLVED Finding files with foreign filenames

[Plato]

Hi,

I want to find files with foreign filenames in them, I'm using a regex to find such files with another tool but I don't know how to use them in find.

Here is what I use ( everything is in a file ):

Code:

*\[DE\]*
*\[JP\]*
*\[RU\]*
*\[FR\]*
*\[KR\]*
*\[PL\]*
*\[AU\]*
*\[IT\]*
*[\p{Han}]*
*[\p{Hiragana}]*
*[\p{Katakana}]*
*[\p{Cyrillic}]*
*[\p{Hangul}]*
*German*
*Japanese*
*Korean*
*Spanish*
*Italian*
*Polish*
*French*

Is there a way to find all files including these?

I am a but puzzled by what you're trying to do. Those are not valid regular expressions... what is the tool you say you are using them with?

What do you consider to be a "foreign" filename???

I didn't say those are valid regex strings.. I meant I'm looking for files with a similar pattern.. Let me explain it with sample filenames:

Code:

*\[DE\]* #....[DE]...
*\[JP\]* #....[JP]...
*\[RU\]* #....[RU]...
*\[FR\]* #....[FR]...
*\[KR\]* #....[KR]...
*\[PL\]* #....[PL]...
*\[AU\]* #....[AU]...
*\[IT\]* #....[IT]...
*[\p{Han}]*      #....{Kanji}...
*[\p{Hiragana}]* #....{Hiragana}...
*[\p{Katakana}]* #....{Katakana}...
*[\p{Cyrillic}]* #....{Cyrillic ( Russian etc)}...
*[\p{Hangul}]*   #....{Hangul ( Korean )}...
*German*    #....German...
*Japanese*  #....Japanese...
*Korean*    #....Korean...
*Spanish*   #....Spanish...
*Italian*   #....Italian...
*Polish*    #....Polish...
*French*    #....French...

Couldn't write characters themselves, just think about files including that character instead of curly braces...

This is not exactly a FreeNAS question but more a shell or FreeBSD question, a quick google search shows e.g. this.
For FreeNAS you should probably go with pcregrep instead of a plain grep:
find . | pcregrep '[^\x00-\x7F]'

Well, it didn't work.. That's most probably find command is different from gnu-find command. Installing fd-find and executing this:
fd '.*[\p{Han}\p{Katakana}\p{Hiragana}\p{Hangul}\p{Cyrillic}].*' worked for foreign characters

I highly doubt that a find . will behave differently on any Unix or Linux system.

Code:

# uname -r
11.2-STABLE

# find . | pcregrep '[^\x00-\x7F]'
./täst.txt

It listed more than what I wanted. But I think the real problem is the ASCII limit. There are some characters bigger than x7F, and still have english titles. As I said I wanted to filter out files with those (foreign) characters in them. Executing it like this probably works:

find . | pcregrep '[^\x00-\xFF]'

Couldn't test them right now, because I removed the files with fd-find.
