Get filenames without timestamp
Hi,

In my previous post I looked for timestamp to be added to the filename
https://www.unix.com/shell-programmin...sing-find.html
Now how do I select those files that do not have timestamp in the filenames.
I tried the following. My file has extension either *.out or *.bad.
Code:
echo "abcdef.test.1234.20130722133919.out" | grep -v '[0-9]\{14\}\.[out|bad]'

Though it did give good results, the above code can be any 14 consecutive numbers. How does the grep/sed/awk knows the pattern as YYYYDDMMHHMISS.out or YYYYDDMMHHMISS.bad

The script should not pick the files that has timestamp in the filename.


Thanks for your help
