merging multiple timestamps into one
Here is a problem that involves looping:
- I have multiple files with same name but different timestamps:
e.g test20080226144525.txt, test20080227144525.txt (can be more
than two files).
- I want to take the collection of these files (e.g test*) and append all its contents to one file.
- This new file with appended contents will be named
test226144525_20080227144525.txt (concatenate timestamps to the filename).
Thanks,
CB

shtool-move
SHTOOL-MOVE.TMP(1) GNU Portable Shell Tool SHTOOL-MOVE.TMP(1)
NAME
shtool-move - GNU shtool enhanced mv(1) replacement
SYNOPSIS
shtool move [-v|--verbose] [-t|--trace] [-e|--expand] [-p|--preserve] src-file dst-file
DESCRIPTION
This is a mv(1) style command enhanced with the ability to rename multiple files in a single operation and the ability to detect and not
touch existing equal destinations files, thus preserving timestamps.
OPTIONS
The following command line options are available.
-v, --verbose
Display some processing information.
-t, --trace
Enable the output of the essential shell commands which are executed.
-e, --expand
Expand asterisk in src to be used as ""%"n" (where n is 1,2,...) in dst-file. This is useful for renaming multiple files at once.
-p, --preserve
Detect src-file and dst-file having equal content and not touch existing destination files, thus perserving timestamps. This is useful
for applications that monitor timestamps, i.e. suppress make(1L) repeating actions for unchanged files.
EXAMPLE
# shell script
shtool move -v -e '*.txt' %1.asc
# Makefile
scanner.c: scanner.l
lex scanner.l
shtool move -t -p lex.yy.c scanner.c
HISTORY
The GNU shtool move command was originally written by Ralf S. Engelschall <rse@engelschall.com> in 1999 for GNU shtool.

shtool(1), mv(1), make(1).
