  1 banjobs  jobsub       125 Jun 17 10:35 icgorldi_2421597.log
2421597.xml

I need to grab the last XML file created
rename and move to a directory the number (2421597) change every time the process run, I need to write a shl script to do that...The process that generates the file is schedule to run 3 times a day, so three different files are created
with a different number like:
Code:
 icgorldi_2421597.xml
icgorldi_2421598.xml
icgorldi_2421599.xml

The number is a sequence but it its share by other processes, so this file is not necessary in a sequence 97..9..99 the number is random..
Thank you

Thank you

NAME
evolvotron_mutate - Render an evolvotron function tree to an image. SYNOPSIS
evolvotron_mutate < function_in.xml > function_out.xml evolvotron_mutate -g > function_out.xml DESCRIPTION
evolvotron_mutate either mutates an existing image function (saved to an XML file), or (with the -g option) creates a new image function. The mutation parameters and function weightings are the same as used by evolvotron in its default reset state. See the evolvotron user manual (accessible from the evolvotron application's Help menu) for more information on image functions. COMMANDLINE OPTIONS
-g Specifies that no function should be read from standard input. The output function is created at random. EXAMPLES
evolvotron_mutate -g | tee function0.xml | evolvotron_render function0.ppm evolvtron_mutate < function0.xml > function1.xml AUTHOR
