I would like to link the files which are available in the source location when it arrives doesn't matter. Once the file available in the source location it should be linked to the specified destination location, file can arrives today or tomorrow and so on. Files can be recognized abc.20130912.txt and abc.20130913.txt for today and tomorrow so on.

I don't want to run any script, it should be one time activity.
For example : for today's file i can link as " ln -s source/abc.20130912.txt dest/abc.20130912.txt " on the same lines is there any way that we can link as below "ln -s source/abc.$(date + %Y%m%d).txt dest/abc.$(date + %Y%m%d).txt" for all the days???

Note: I have around 300 files to link and with different names. every day same files will be created with different date stamp.
