Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Exclude incomplete files in ls -rlt Post 302825335 by rbatte1 on Monday 24th of June 2013 06:40:29 AM

Could I suggest a simple reference file:-
Code:
touch my-ref-file
sleep 5
find dir ! -newer my-ref-file

The sleep is just to ensure that at least some further file growth from an incoming FTP will occur. Slower than that, then I would expect the FTP to timeout anyway.





I hope that this helps,
