Question How to grep mix of numbers and systemdate?

Hi Guys,

i'm beginner in UNIX commands, need some help on this simple question:
I need to make a shell script to move files to another directory,
the criterias are :
1. the range of 4 last digit of the file name is 0100-0199
2. move all files that processed daily (let's say today is 22Dec'08)

so if i have these processed files in my folder, those 3 files(BOLD) should be moved :

XMAS200811100100.txt
XMAS200811110100.txt
XMAS200812150105.txt
XMAS200812220100.txt
XMAS200812220200.txt
XMAS200812220199.txt
XMAS200812220177.txt

how to write a shell script to read that kind of format(mix of range numbers and system date) and move it to another folder? Smilie

Thanks a lott....

NAME
set_color - set_color - set the terminal color set_color - set the terminal color Synopsis set_color [-v --version] [-h --help] [-b --background COLOR] [COLOR] Description Change the foreground and/or background color of the terminal. COLOR is one of black, red, green, brown, yellow, blue, magenta, purple, cyan, white and normal. o -b, --background Set the background color o -c, --print-colors Prints a list of all valid color names o -h, --help Display help message and exit o -o, --bold Set bold or extra bright mode o -u, --underline Set underlined mode o -v, --version Display version and exit Calling set_color normal will set the terminal color to whatever is the default color of the terminal. Some terminals use the --bold escape sequence to switch to a brighter color set. On such terminals, set_color white will result in a grey font color, while set_color --bold white will result in a white font color. Not all terminal emulators support all these features. This is not a bug in set_color but a missing feature in the terminal emulator. set_color uses the terminfo database to look up how to change terminal colors on whatever terminal is in use. Some systems have old and incomplete terminfo databases, and may lack color information for terminals that support it. Download and install the latest version of ncurses and recompile fish against it in order to fix this issue. Version 1.23.1 Sun Jan 8 2012 set_color(1)
