Create multiple zip files each containing 50 xml files.

Hi,

Is there a direct command or need to write a shell script for following requirement?

Everyday a folder is populated with approx 25k to 30k xml files. I need to create multiple zip files in the same folder each containing 50 xml files. The last zip file may or may not contain 50 xml files. Delete all the xml files once the zip files are created successfully.

Example :
If the folder has total of 156 xml files, then I need to create 4 zip files in same folder:
<date>01.zip (containing 50 xml files)
<date>02.zip (containint 50 xml files)
<date>03.zip (containing 50 xml files) and
<date>04.zip (containgin 6 xml files)

Thanks
Rakesh
