Need help in sorting the file and putting to a different folder

Hi,


I am new to unix. Kindly help me on this.


My requirement is as below:


I have a path temp/input , temp/CL and temp/CM


I have files in temp/input as below (dates in YYYYMMDDHHMISS)


Code:
  NMP1515O.CL.20181026111213
  NMP1515O.CM.20181025111213
  NMP1515O.CM.20181024111213
  NMP1515O.CL.20181023111213

****Basically I need to sort on basis of CL and timestamp. Similarly for CM and timestamp. Move only one file from CL and CM to relevant folders i.e temp/CL and temp/CM *******


Before moving the file from temp/input to temp/CL, we need to check if there is any file in the folder temp/CL. If there is file already in temp/CL, then we should not move from temp/input to temp/CL. File should be moved only when temp/CL is empty.


Same way we need to follow for CM.


Could you kindly help.


Thank you,
Priya

ustrtok(3alleg4)						  Allegro manual						  ustrtok(3alleg4)

NAME
ustrtok - Retrieves tokens from a string. Allegro game programming library. SYNOPSIS
#include <allegro.h> char *ustrtok(char *s, const char *set); DESCRIPTION
This function retrieves tokens from `s' which are delimited by characters from `set'. To initiate the search, pass the string to be searched as `s'. For the remaining tokens, pass NULL instead. Warning: Since ustrtok alters the string it is parsing, you should always copy the string to a temporary buffer before parsing it. Also, this function is not re-entrant (ie. you cannot parse two strings at the same time). Example: char *word; char string[]="some-words with dashes"; char *temp = ustrdup(string); word = ustrtok(temp, " -"); while (word) { allegro_message("Found `%s' ", word); word = ustrtok(NULL, " -"); } free(temp); RETURN VALUE
Returns a pointer to the token, or NULL if no more are found. SEE ALSO
