The files will be generated randomly with those numbers.
What i want to do is the user will pass two file names like abc-bin.00004 and abc-bin.000010 and the script will copy all the files in between those passed filenames exclding the two filenames passed.
The user can pass any two file names.Need to keep them dynamic.

Hi,
I'm using cp -Rp to copy directories while preserving permissions. I want to exclude any ".lproj" files except for "English.lproj" and "en.lproj" from being copied, but the rest is copied as usual. Is there a way to do this (without using tar or other compression utilities)
