Full Discussion: Get timestamp by 'YYYYMMDD'
Operating Systems Solaris Get timestamp by 'YYYYMMDD' Post 302408938 by elph on Wednesday 31st of March 2010 12:18:26 AM
Old 03-31-2010
Power Hi Daptal
Many thanks for your advise. Here's normal ls -l output at my current environment.

>ls -l test.txt
-rw-r----- 1 jpXXXX appXXXX 0 3月 31日 13:09 test.txt

I'm not sure you can view our own character, but just in case, "3月 31日" means March 31 (月　is month 日 is day in Japanese).

And what my intention is I'd like to copy as back up with timestamp if there is already the same name file in the directory.
Following simple script can work on other distribution but not on Soralis...

if ( -f ${FNAME} ) then
set TSP = `ls -d -l --time-style='+%Y%m'$FNAME | awk '{print $6; }'`;
mv $FANME $TSP_$FNAME
endif

Sorry, I should post my intention more earlier.
If you need any other information, pls let me know.

Again, thanks all of your help.
