Extracting a portion of the filename
Hi
I would like to extract the first portion of filename from a list of files.
The filename pattern is of the form 123456789_TEXT_TEXT_TEXT_.csv. I want to extract just the numerical portion of this filename from the list of files and then output this into another text file.

I have a script which accept filename and process them, however, one of the file needs 'special' handling so I need to identify it, say the filename contains the word "STOCK" (i.e. NEWYORKSTOCKLIST20060627.txt), I want to check if the filename contains the word "STOCK", how can I do that?...

amarchiver
AMARCHIVER(8) System Administration Commands AMARCHIVER(8)
NAME
amarchiver - Create, extract or list amanda archive
SYNOPSIS
amarchiver --version|--create|--extract|--list [--verbose] [--file file] [filename]...
DESCRIPTION
Amarchiver manipulates amanda archive file. On creation, amarchiver doesn't recurse into directories. If a filename specifies a directory,
it will be ignored. If it specifies a character device, amarchiver reads the device and archives the data. If a filename specifies a named
pipe, amarchiver reads the named pipe and archives the data.
Note that this tool is more limited than the Amanda archive library, and may not be appropriate for some archive files -- particularly
those which use non-strings in their filenames.
OPTIONS
--version
print the amarchiver version
--create
Create an amanda archive. Only the supplied filenames are included. With one --verbose, lists the filenames. With two, lists the
filenames and sizes.
--list
List the filenames in an amanda archive. No additional filenames are allowed on the command line.
--extract
Extract an amanda archive. If filenames are supplied, only those files are extracted. Files are created in the current directory,
suffixed with a dot ('.') and the attribute ID.
--verbose
Give more information.
--file file
Create, list or extract from the given file instead of stdin/stdout.
