Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Continue Execution Based On List Post 302885123 by RudiC on Thursday 23rd of January 2014 03:46:51 PM

So you have a list of file names, a directory full of files, and the intersection of both must match a pattern. It may be a bit tedious to find out the optimum way to boil that down to the actual set of files to be worked upon. Scrutinizer has provided one example; try this as an alternative:
Code:
ls $(grep TM_ICP_EDW_FIN04-ACCOUNT_CONSOL_.*\.csv list.txt) >pass.txt 2>/dev/null

Watch out - grep takes a regex, not a shell pattern!

ZGREP(1)						      General Commands Manual							  ZGREP(1)

NAME
zgrep - search possibly compressed files for a regular expression SYNOPSIS
zgrep [ grep_options ] [ -e ] pattern filename... DESCRIPTION
Zgrep invokes grep on compressed or gzipped files. These grep options will cause zgrep to terminate with an error code: (-[drRzZ]|--di*|--exc*|--inc*|--rec*|--nu*). All other options specified are passed directly to grep. If no file is specified, then the standard input is decompressed if necessary and fed to grep. Otherwise the given files are uncompressed if necessary and fed to grep. If the GREP environment variable is set, zgrep uses it as the grep program to be invoked. EXIT CODE
2 - An option that is not supported was specified. AUTHOR
