Sorting filenames by order in another file
I would like to arrange /sort filenames ending with suffix like ".00XXXX". where X is a digit. However the order of arrangement is in a text file and is 'harpharzard'. e.g the text file may be like
002345
009807
001145
I wanted to avoid doing this using sql and exporting the text file back to unix.
