Help needed to modify search functionality

Hi Folks -


I have the following file:
Quote:
outbox/FINPLAN - Entity_692.dat
outbox/FINPLAN - Entity_694.dat
outbox/FINPLAN - Entity_695.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_1084.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_1126.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_1130.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_1142.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_1185.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_1201.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_1221.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_1245.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_1247.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_1301.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_1303.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_1443.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_1503.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_1562.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_1661.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_1662.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_1701.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_1741.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_1781.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_1822.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_1864.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_1881.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_1944.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_FILE_1101.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_FILE_1128.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_FILE_1131.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_FILE_1132.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_FILE_1144.dat
outbox/FINPLAN_FILE_531.dat
outbox/logs/FINPLAN_2141.log
outbox/logs/FINPLAN_2161.log
outbox/logs/FINPLAN_2181.log
outbox/logs/FINPLAN_2201.log
This file is exported after various steps of my data integration routine. I need to be able to dynamically download the latest logfile from this list that starts with a path of " outbox/logs/", all other entries can be ignored.



I have the following code which works if I know the name of the log:
Code:
_FDMEE_LOG="$(sort -r temp.txt | sed -n "\#${_OUTBOX_BIN}FINPLAN_# {s#.*/##; p; q}")"

I need to be able to find the latest file, regardless of the name as long as it starts with " outbox/logs/". I tried to add a wildcard to the above logic but it doesn't work. Can someone help me editing my syntax?


THe result should be : outbox/logs/FINPLAN_2201.log based on my sample data.



Thank you!

SYNOPSIS
array getrusage ([int $who]) DESCRIPTION
This is an interface to getrusage(2). It gets data returned from the system call. PARAMETERS
o $who - If $who is 1, getrusage will be called with RUSAGE_CHILDREN. RETURN VALUES
Returns an associative array containing the data returned from the system call. All entries are accessible by using their documented field names. EXAMPLES
Example #1 getrusage(3) example <?php $dat = getrusage(); echo $dat["ru_nswap"]; // number of swaps echo $dat["ru_majflt"]; // number of page faults echo $dat["ru_utime.tv_sec"]; // user time used (seconds) echo $dat["ru_utime.tv_usec"]; // user time used (microseconds) ?> CHANGELOG
+--------+---------------------------------------------+ |Version | | | | | | | Description | | | | +--------+---------------------------------------------+ | 7.0.0 | | | | | | | This function is now supported on Windows. | | | | +--------+---------------------------------------------+ NOTES
Note On Windows getrusage(3) will only return the following members: o "ru_stime.tv_sec" o "ru_stime.tv_usec" o "ru_utime.tv_sec" o "ru_utime.tv_usec" o "ru_majflt" (only if $who is RUSAGE_SELF) o "ru_maxrss" (only if $who is RUSAGE_SELF) If getrusage(3) is called with $who set to 1 ( RUSAGE_CHILDREN), then resource usage for threads are collected (meaning that inter- nally the function is called with RUSAGE_THREAD). Note on BeOS 2000, only the following members are returned: o "ru_stime.tv_sec" o "ru_stime.tv_usec" o "ru_utime.tv_sec" o "ru_utime.tv_usec" SEE ALSO
