It's not a bad idea to get into the practice of always doing "find . -print0 | xargs -0 <your program>" instead of the above. Otherwise, files with spaces or other strange characters in their names will cause the command to fail. And even if you don't happen to have any filenames with spaces at the moment, it doesn't hurt -- it's just good hygeine.
