I finally got some results with:
find -maxdepth 5 -atime +10 -name \*.odt
Putting the escape in front of the * is necessary unless you quote the
pattern, but doing '*.odt' produced no results. The escape worked,
however.
But the problem is that the above command delivered every .odt file on
my computer, which is many hundreds, if not thousands. If I change it
to just 10 (which is what the man page says to do), instead of +10 then
I get:
find: `./.cache/dconf': Permission denied
Whatever that means.
