that works, but it also picks up the first number it encounters.
Code:
fname="reddogssamsfile1.f0633.bin"
fnametmp=${fname#*[_.](V|v|F|f)}
parse=$(echo $fname | sed 's/[^0-9]*\([0-9][0-9]*\)[^ ]*/\1/')
echo FLRECL=$parse

result:FLRECL=1

essentially, i need to grab 4 numbers after f and before BIN/CMP/ENC extensions.

appreciated
