Hi,

try this ...

Code:
#!/bin/sh

ls -ltr file* | awk '{print $9}' > temp
i=0
while read filename
do
i=`expr $i + 1`
if [ $i == 100 ]
then
i=0
fi
curr_date=`date '+%Y%m%d%H%M%S'`
echo "old filename = $filename newfilename = DOC"$curr_date$(printf "%02d" $i)".xml"

EIO_RENAME(3)								 1							     EIO_RENAME(3)

eio_rename - Change the name or location of a file.

SYNOPSIS
resource eio_rename (string $path, string $new_path, [int $pri = EIO_PRI_DEFAULT], [callable $callback = NULL], [mixed $data = NULL]) DESCRIPTION
eio_rename(3) renames or moves a file to new location. PARAMETERS
o $path - Source path o $new_path - Target path o $pri -The request priority: EIO_PRI_DEFAULT, EIO_PRI_MIN, EIO_PRI_MAX, or NULL. If NULL passed, $pri internally is set to EIO_PRI_DEFAULT. o $callback -$callback function is called when the request is done. It should match the following prototype: void callback(mixed $data, int $result[, resource $req]); o $data -is custom data passed to the request. o $result -request-specific result value; basically, the value returned by corresponding system call. o $req -is optional request resource which can be used with functions like eio_get_last_error(3) o $data - Arbitrary variable passed to $callback. RETURN VALUES
eio_rename(3) returns request resource on success or FALSE on error. EXAMPLES
Example #1 eio_rename(3) example <?php $filename = dirname(__FILE__)."/eio-temp-file.dat"; touch($filename); $new_filename = dirname(__FILE__)."/eio-temp-file-new.dat"; function my_rename_cb($data, $result) { global $filename, $new_filename; if ($result == 0 && !file_exists($filename) && file_exists($new_filename)) { @unlink($new_filename); echo "eio_rename_ok"; } else { @unlink($filename); } } eio_rename($filename, $new_filename, EIO_PRI_DEFAULT, "my_rename_cb", $filename); eio_event_loop(); ?> The above example will output something similar to: eio_rename_ok PHP Documentation Group EIO_RENAME(3)
