how can I find files matching multiple extensions from current directory with a single command? [duplicate]

Question

For example all files matching ".doc" and ".txt". I know how to find one extension type, but I need multiple without running multiple commands.

Answer 1

You can combine tests in find using -o (OR)

find path/to/somedir \( -name '*.doc' -o -name '*.txt' \)

See man find, in particular
