This command will find the file project.txt and delete it.
This begins recursively looking at dot files starting from "./path_to_dir". Then it prints out the names of those files. If you are satisfied with the list of files discovered then you can delete them like so `find ./path_to_dir -type f -name '.*' -exec rm '{}' \;` which executes the removal program against each of those names previously printed. This is useful when you want to remove thumbnail files on Mac OSX/Windows or simply want to reset an app's configuration on Linux.
