Joining Similarly Named Files
Have a few hundred files that I have no control over. I need to join them on a common string. There are two files per unit. The file names are:
Code:
AAAA_X_file1.txt
AAAA_file2.txt

join -a1 file1 file2 - this works.

My question is, is there a way to use the join command listing the file names only?
