TryingI'm trying to do a findfind with a -exec of a command aliased in my .bash_profile on macOS.bash_profile , find shows The find: [alias cmd]: No such file or directory command shows

find: [alias cmd]: No such file or directory

e.g. `find ./ -iname *.doc -exec sha256 {} \;`

find ./ -iname *.doc -exec sha256 {} \;`
