cat file_list | [script to print last some characters]
Hello guys,

I have a list of files. For example:

Code:
/disk1/mediator_home/tmp/ntest/TSFILE00.8256.GGG1-U.0908250009.unp.20090824P8.is
/disk1/mediator_home/tmp/ntest/TSFILE00.8257.GGG1-U.0908250013.unp.20090825P1.is

/disk1/mediator_home/tmp/ntest/TSFILE00.8257.GGG1-U.0908250013.unp.20090825P1.ic
/disk1/mediator_home/tmp/ntest/TSFILE00.8256.GGG1-U.0908250009.unp.20321116P1.is

/disk1/mediator_home/tmp/ntest/TSFILE00.8257.GGG1-U.0908250013.unp.20061116P1.is

/disk1/mediator_home/tmp/ntest/TSFILE00.8255.GGG1-U.0908250005.unp.20090824P8.is
I need to get list of unique characters from the last, like this:
substring (s, length(s) - 13, 10)

For example: above output is:

Code:
20061116P1
20090822P8
20090823P1
20090824P8
20090825P1
20321116P1
Please help,

Thanks in advance
