executing command outputs in bash

hi all
i want to use the each output of such commands like find or ls

for example i have function called make_sth()
and i want all of the outputs of "find /var/www -type f" to be executed with make_sth()

i hope i managed to explain my problem

best regards...

you can auto-interpolate find results into a pair of curly braces {} eg

find /usr -name *.c -exec grep main \{\} \; -print.

will find in /usr all files with a .c extention and then grep for main function definitions from each result, as if they were interpolated one by one into the braces. the results are then printed

So the important thing here is the -exec option

I'm talking backwards
