#  This is a helping script for the findfirst script.  It finds the first file within
#  the directory given as the first parameter that matches the target given as
#  the second parameter.  Output is to standard out and gives the full pathname
#  of the located file.  An exit status of 0 is returned to indicate that a match
#  was found, otherwise an exit status of 1 is used.
