That is correct. I want to keep only the last two versions of each file and delete all others. My sample output shows the results I would get if the script works correctly. That part would not be hard. If I could get all the other files in a text file, then I could run a "for loop" that would delete all the files from the directory that exist in the text. That I can do.
for i in `cat removefiles.txt`
do
rm temp/$i
done
