I just use find. it's a little longer but gives me the full paths and is more consistent. also works well if you need to recurse. something like `find . -type f | while read -r filepath; do whatever "${filepath}"; done`

thankfully it seems like this feature won't be rolled out to existing non-arm/copilot PCs (though who knows). already migrated my PC to linux, my current laptop is a macbook. my partner's next laptop will likely be a macbook,

in addition, vendors tend to build things for a large variety of environments, and not just your specific use case. so new features would require more thought and consideration than an internal implementation for your company's specifi
