This all sounds very over the top to me... I would appreciate it if the 
requirement was outlined somewhat more clearly... from what I've read, 
it seems that "find" would adequately work as a command to pipe into 
whatever script it is that requires the files...

ie.

whatever.shl < `find . -name '*wildcard*' -print`

or...

find . -name '*wildcard*' -print | process_archive.shl

...or similar...
