To find files having filename containing specific date format
Hi,
I have a requirement to create a shell script(tcsh) that finds all the files in a directory having the file name containing date format "YYYYMMDDHHMM" and extract the date time part ""YYYYMMDDHHMM" for further processing.
Could you please have any idea on this.
Thanks.
