File renaming with date timestamp
Hi,

This is my script:

#! /usr/bin/ksh
cd /app/chdata/workflow/suppl/esoutput/spd/testing
for file in /app/chdata/workflow/suppl/esoutput/spd/testing
do
sort *.txt | awk '{ file=substr($0,1,2)".txt"; print >> file }'
mv *.txt file_`date +"%Y%m%d%H%M%S"`.txt
done

Here, I am trying to rename all the files say *.txt to *_date.txt.

However, Its throwing an error.

Please help.

Regards,
Sunitha

ATR_ANALYSIS(1p)                                                   User Commands                                                  ATR_ANALYSIS(1p)

NAME

       ATR_analysis - analyse a smart card ATR

SYNOPSIS

       ATR_analysis [ATRstring]

DESCRIPTION

       ATR_analysis is used to parse the ATR (Answer To Reset) sent by a smart card.

       The command also tries to find the card model using an ATR database stored in a text file smartcard_list.txt.

       The smartcard_list.txt file is searched in ./, /usr/local/pcsc/ and /usr/share/pcsc/ directories.

       Exemple:
        $ ATR_analysis '3B A7 00 40 18 80 65 A2 08 01 01 52'
        ATR: 3B A7 00 40 18 80 65 A2 08 01 01 52
        + TS = 3B --> Direct Convention
        + T0 = A7, Y(1): 1010, K: 7 (historical bytes)
          TB(1) = 00 --> Programming Param P: 0, I: 0
          TD(1) = 40 --> Y(i+1) = 0100, Protocol T = 0
        -----
          TC(2) = 18 --> Work waiting time: 960 x 24 x (Fi/F)
        + Historical bytes: 80 65 A2 08 01 01 52

        Possibly identified card:
        3B A7 00 40 18 80 65 A2 08 01 01 52
