I have now stored the initial and final time as 24-hour hours, minutes and seconds in
variables `itm` and `ftm` respictively.

My files look as follows and want to introduce `itm` and `ftm` in the file name. I want to
introduce `itm` and `ftm` instead of the number before `.sac` to get something like

./iv-hhz-sac/hpac/hhz.d/iv.hpac..hhz.d.2016.215.itm.ftm.sac

Is there any good way to do this?


Code:
./iv-hhz-sac/hpac/hhz.d/iv.hpac..hhz.d.2016.215.132909.sac
./iv-hhz-sac/hpac/hhz.d/iv.hpac..hhz.d.2016.215.132909.sac
./iv-hhz-sac/hpac/hhz.d/iv.hpac..hhz.d.2016.215.132934.sac
./iv-hhz-sac/hpac/hhz.d/iv.hpac..hhz.d.2016.215.132934.sac
./iv-hhz-sac/hpac/hhz.d/iv.hpac..hhz.d.2016.215.13290945.sac
./iv-hhz-sac/hpac/hhz.d/iv.hpac..hhz.d.2016.215.1329095.sac

The following does not work well

Code:
echo "$stfl" | awk -F '.' '{for(i=1;i<=(NF-2);i++) print $i}'

Audio::MPD::Common::Time(3pm)				User Contributed Perl Documentation			     Audio::MPD::Common::Time(3pm)

NAME
Audio::MPD::Common::Time - class representing time of current song VERSION
version 1.120881 DESCRIPTION
Audio::MPD::Common::Status returns some time information with the "time()" accessor. This information relates to the elapsed time of the current song, as well as the remaining and total time. This information is encapsulated in an Audio::MPD::Common::Time object. An Audio::MPD::Common::Time object does not update itself regularly, and thus should be used immediately. Note: one should never ever instantiate an Audio::MPD::Common::Time object directly - use the mpd modules instead. ATTRIBUTES
$time->time; The time passed to the constructor, used to compute all others values (see methods). It is the time value (on the "time" line) of what the MPD server returns to the status command. Defaults to "0:0". METHODS
my $str = $time->sofar; Return elapsed $time ("minutes:seconds" format). my $str = $time->left; Return remaining $time ("minutes:seconds" format). my $str = $time->left; Return total $time ("minutes:seconds" format). my $percent = $time->percent; Return elapsed $time (percentage, 1 digit). my $secs = $time->seconds_sofar; Return elapsed $time in seconds. my $secs = $time->seconds_left; Return remaining $time in seconds. my $secs = $time->seconds_total; Return total $time in seconds. my $mins = $time->sofar_mins; Return minutes part of elapsed $time. my $secs = $time->sofar_secs; Return seconds part of elapsed $time. my $mins = $time->left_mins; Return minutes part of remaining $time. my $secs = $time->left_secs; Return seconds part of remaining $time. my $mins = $time->total_mins; Return minutes part of total $time. my $mins = $time->total_secs; Return seconds part of total $time.
