After following this thread for a week my view is unchanged. You cannot capture transient data reliably from transient data files using standard unix tools.
Imho 1.The system design needs attention. In particular the application which is writing these data files. You get a completely different scenario if the application writes files with unique file names and closes each file after processing.
Imho 2. This processing should be in the primary system. Too many times we find complex data processing in Shell tools which should be done in a high level database language.
Throughout this thread we have learnt absolutely nothing about the process which writes these transient data files or the reason for intercepting the files and we have seen no sign of test code, formal testing, and the results of such testing.
Imho 3. This thread is a complete waste of technical resources.

wstring
wstring(3C) Standard C Library Functions wstring(3C)
NAME
wstring, wscasecmp, wsncasecmp, wsdup, wscol - Process Code string operations
SYNOPSIS
#include <widec.h>
int wscasecmp(const wchar_t *s1, const wchar_t *s2);
int wsncasecmp(const wchar_t *s1, const wchar_t *s2, int n);
wchar_t *wsdup(const wchar_t *s);
int wscol(const wchar_t *s);
DESCRIPTION
These functions operate on Process Code strings terminated by wchar_t null characters. During appending or copying, these routines do not
check for an overflow condition of the receiving string. In the following, s, s1, and s2 point to Process Code strings terminated by a
wchar_t null.
wscasecmp(), wsncasecmp()
The wscasecmp() function compares its arguments, ignoring case, and returns an integer greater than, equal to, or less than 0, depending
upon whether s1 is lexicographically greater than, equal to, or less than s2. It makes the same comparison but compares at most n Process
Code characters. The four Extended Unix Code (EUC) codesets are ordered from lowest to highest as 0, 2, 3, 1 when characters from different
codesets are compared.
wsdup()
The wsdup() function returns a pointer to a new Process Code string, which is a duplicate of the string pointed to by s. The space for the
new string is obtained using malloc(3C). If the new string cannot be created, a null pointer is returned.
wscol()
The wscol() function returns the screen display width (in columns) of the Process Code string s.
