[PATCH] Add option --flat

[Magnus Sandberg]

Hi Andreas,

Thanks for adapting my idea, two comments;

- The 'sort' command was added as 'find' list found matches in "random 
order" (inode order I guess). There are other places in /usr/bin/pass 
where 'sort' is used. I prefer sort without LC_ALL=C to not force 
case-sencitive sort.

- I think Kjetil has a good point of removing ${PREFIX} and '.gpg' 
before the 'grep' to avoid "false positives" when a part of the path 
(not the filename) would match ${terms}.


An updated version would be:
find ${PREFIX} -type f -name '*.gpg' | sed -E "s|^${PREFIX}/||" \
     | sed -E 's/\.gpg$//' | grep -i "${terms}" | sort


Regards,
// mem
