Hi Folks,
To use this command mv "$file" "${file/./_first.}" i need to assign the file name to file variable first right ?
I am in the process of automating the step and I will not know what time the file will be created and it can be at anytime of the day. In this case how do i change the name of the file?
Thanks

Hi
I use "touch -t xxxxxxxx" command to set date/time stamp of a file. My requirement is to read the date/time stamp of a file and apply it to another file.
Is there anyway to do it simple instead of manually taking date/stamp of first file?
TIA

xsetinputfocus
XSetInputFocus() XSetInputFocus()
Name
XSetInputFocus - set the keyboard focus window.
Synopsis
XSetInputFocus(display, focus, revert_to, time)
Display *display;
Window focus;
int revert_to;
Time time;
Arguments
display Specifies a connection to an X server; returned from XOpenDisplay().
focus Specifies the ID of the window you want to be the keyboard focus. Pass the window ID, PointerRoot, or None.
revert_to
Specifies which window the keyboard focus reverts to if the focus window becomes not viewable. Pass one of these constants:
RevertToParent, RevertToPointerRoot, or RevertToNone. Must not be a window ID.
time Specifies the time when the focus change should take place. Pass either a timestamp, expressed in milliseconds, or the constant
CurrentTime. Also returns the time of the focus change when CurrentTime is specified.
Description
XSetInputFocus() changes the keyboard focus and the last-focus-change time. The function has no effect if time is earlier than the current
last-focus-change time or later than the current X server time. Otherwise, the last-focus-change time is set to the specified time, with
CurrentTime replaced by the current X server time.
XSetInputFocus() generates FocusIn and FocusOut events if focus is different from the current focus.
XSetInputFocus() executes as follows, depending on what value you assign to the focus argument:
o If you assign None, all keyboard events are discarded until you set a new focus window. In this case, revert_to is ignored.
o If you assign a window ID, it becomes the main keyboard's focus window. If a generated keyboard event would normally be reported to
this window or one of its inferiors, the event is reported normally; otherwise, the event is reported to the focus window. The speci-
fied focus window must be viewable at the time of the request (else a BadMatch error). If the focus window later becomes not viewable,
the focus window will change to the revert_to argument.
o If you assign PointerRoot, the focus window is dynamically taken to be the root window of whatever screen the pointer is on at each key-
board event. In this case, revert_to is ignored. This is the default keyboard focus setting.
If the focus window later becomes not viewable, XSetInputFocus() evaluates the revert_to argument to determine the new focus window:
o If you assign RevertToParent, the focus reverts to the parent (or the closest viewable ancestor) automatically with a new revert_to
argument of RevertToName.
o If you assign RevertToPointerRoot or RevertToNone, the focus reverts to that value automatically. FocusIn and FocusOut events are gen-
erated when the focus reverts, but the last focus change time is not affected.
Errors
BadMatch focus window not viewable when XSetInputFocus() called.
BadValue
BadWindow
