This is tricky. Using 'file' to test even the corrupt jpeg images will return a
valid jpeg header in most cases and miss the fact that the image is corrupt. I
don't mind grepping or running find tde/main -type f -name "*.jpg" -execdir
<what> '{}' \;, but I need to know what <what> will do the trick. Ideas?

I'll give it a go. It will take either a recursive grep with an exclude or some
global find with an -exec that uses file to test for searchable files -- or some
combination of the two. Do you have any examples of what doesn't work so I don't
reinvent a nonworking wheel :)

Fun... I think I still have the old threads.
