Hello,
I have in my backup folder, files with names convention like this :
randomFileNames_13-02-2014_23h13m09+1392333189
randomFileNames_14-02-2014_02h13m09+1392343989
randomFileNames_14-02-2014_04h13m09+1392351189
etc....
Base on timestamp at end of the filename, I would to delete all the files which are older than 10 days.
I prefer to base on the timestamp in the file name end NOT on -mtime because those backup files can be access any time for reading.
Thanks for your reading and helps.

Hmmm....
You mean something like:
This is based on the assumption that "randomFileNames" will not contain the character "+", otherwise the above might get ambiguous. You might use the above in a manner like:
Hi,
I'm trying to compare Actual.html with a baseline.html
However, everytime it fails b'coz of the timestamp differences

VSTP(1) BrlNet User's Manual VSTP(1)NAME
vstpg, vstpp - VisioBraille file transferring
SYNOPSIS
vstpg [-ifbnd] [-s socketport] [-k keyname] [-o configname] file ...
DESCRIPTION
vstpg (resp. vstpp) gets (resp. puts) files from (resp. onto) a VisioBraille terminal.
For communicating with the terminal, you must launch brltty with the BrlNet driver, and telling BrlNet to use the VisioBraille driver.
Before putting on the terminal, file names are truncated to 8 characters without any extension.
Before getting from terminal, leading path and trailing extensions are removed, but put back for local filename.
COMMAND-LINE OPTIONS-i ask for confirmation of transfer, for each file (on the terminal)
-f don't ask for such a confirmation (default)
-b if they exists, recursively rename the old files with an added .x suffix, just like logrotate does
-n do not keep such backup file (default)
-s socketport
use socketport as the port number instead of default for connecting to BrlNet
-k filename
use filename as key path instead of default for reading BrlNet's authentication key
-d use current directory rather than the download directory (see vbs_dir below)
-o filename
also read filename as config file
CONFIG FILE
vstpg and vstpp read a configuration file $HOME/.vstprc which contains keywords or equalities, one per line (what follows a # is ignored).
You can ask them to also read any other file thanks to the -o option.
Here are keywords:
backup make -b option the default
nobackup
make -f option the default
and equalities:
keyname = filename
use this file instead of default, to find BrlNet's authentication key
socketport = port
use this port number, instead of default, to connect to BrlNet
vbs_ext = .ext
use .ext as an extension for downloaded files (.vis by default) this is overriden on command line if an extension is provided in the
file name
vbs_dir = path
use path instead of current directory for putting files, except when using the -d option, or if the filename begins with '.'
RETURNED VALUE
1 syntax error on command line
2 connection with BrlNet error
3 Unix file error
4 Protocol error
16 interrupted by user
SHELL EXPANSIONS
Beware of special chars: * and . are often expanded by your shell, hence vstpp * will probably do what you want, putting every file exist-
ing in the current directory onto the terminal, but vstpg * may not do what you want: it will only get every file which already exist in
the current directory, skipping those you just created on your terminal ! If you want to get every file which exist in the terminal, you
should use vstpg '*' or something similar (please read your shell manual).
The same warning applies to other special chars, such as $, ~, &,... which should be protected by surrounding arguments by quotes (') or by
using single backslashes () just before them (please read your shell manual).
BUGS
The one we could find has been corrected :)
