Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Need another sort criterium for 'ls' Post 302959414 by API on Monday 2nd of November 2015 12:23:50 PM

Ok. Sorry for my misleading Statements. I tried to explain it in words, but it seems not the best way to do this.

Once more.

I have These files within my Directory:
Code:
exec_aabs291_71.txt
exec_aubs291_71.txt
copy_cubs291_84.txt
copy_cubs291_85.txt
exec_cubs291_71.txt
exec_cubs291_72.txt

I would like to have an 'ls' where I will get the following order of Output:

Code:
exec_aabs291_71.txt
exec_aubs291_71.txt
exec_cubs291_71.txt
exec_cubs291_72.txt
copy_cubs291_84.txt
copy_cubs291_85.txt

So, in words: If you take one file - e.g. "exec_aabs291_71.txt" - the first sort-criteria should be the number "71", the second sort-criteria should be the text before "aabs291". And thats all.

Hopefully that will Point it out...
