Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers And(&&) Question Post 278 by Astudent on Sunday 19th of November 2000 02:57:05 PM
Old 11-19-2000
I still didn't make it as clear as I should of:
How about this!

#!/usr/bash

touch report.txt booby.doc report.doc run.txt report.cpp
ls *txt report*

See this will ls 4 report files when in fact there is only three! I don't want any files duplicated!
I need this for my dir with many files not just these listed - if that helps.

Thanks,

A
