Oki Let me provide you more detailed input so that it could give you a clue what im trying to do:

Code:
bash-3.00$ for j in $(find . -type d -name "`date +%Y%m%d`" 2>/dev/null);do echo $j ;done
./output/fail/20141127
./output/20141127
./abm/20141127
./so/20141127
./error/20141127
./error/suspension/20141127
./ccn/20141127
./input/20141127

There are several files under those folders above, and in those files there are several rows (records) too.

By using a one liner (otherwise i need complicated a scrpit file to write) I would like to print these daily created folders and their last 2 files under like this:
Code:
bash-3.00$ for j in $(find . -type d -name "`date +%Y%m%d`" 2>/dev/null);do echo -e "\n`pwd`${j#.}" && ls "`pwd`${j#.}" | tail -2;done

/data/sdp/omm/log/output/fail/20141127

/data/sdp/omm/log/output/20141127
000248outputparams_20141127111523.txt
000249outputparams_20141127111553.txt

/data/sdp/omm/log/abm/20141127
000029abm_20141127031628.txt
000030abm_20141127031638.txt

It could be very nice to print the context of each file next to the file name
context of those txt files are pipe seperated such as "a|b1|c3|4|55|x|y|z"

ideal output would be something like:
Code:
/data/sdp/omm/log/abm/20141127
000029abm_20141127031628.txt:a|b1|c3|4|55|x|y|z
000030abm_20141127031638.txt:t|u1|k3|m4
