I was reading an article in a magazine, and the article was talking about the
find command. It mentioned as an example:	find / -depth -print

Now I have RTFM (both on BSD-based systems and SysV-based system) and I can find
no option -depth, furthermore, when I try the example I get:
find: bad option < -depth >

What does this option mean ?
