How to find files excluding symbolic links?

Question

I want to find files in Linux that follow a certain pattern but I am not interested in symbolic links.

There doesn\'t seem to be an option to the find comm

Answer 1

I have readed the MAN and now it seems is -P also, using -type r would raise an error. also notice is the DEFAULT behavior now.

-P Never follow symbolic links. This is the default behaviour. When find examines or prints information a file, and the file is a symbolic link, the information used shall be taken from the properties of the symbolic link itself.
