#2010-10031749_ANTB.BHZ

Renaming is use of the mv command, not really a shell thing one way or the other. I suppose we are talking about list processing, something that might as well be done in sed and sent to any shell:

Code:

 
ls '#'*.KO | sed '
  p
  s/#\(.*).KO$/#'`date "+%Y-%m%m%H%M"`'_\1/
 ' | sed '
  N
  s/\n/ /
  s/^/mv /
' | csh

Narrative: list any #*.KO files into sed, which sends each on unmodified as source and then rewrites the file name to the desired format with the current timestamp. (hopefully clock time is OK, or did you want the file mod time?) The second sed get the pair of lines and reformats them to "mv source target" and sends the dynamically generated script to a shell.

programme said :

Unmatched '.

guess there is a missing backslash in the first sed command..

Code:

s/#\(.*\).KO$/#'`date "+%Y-%m%m%H%M"`'_\1/

but i think there is another mistake because when i make csh rename.csh it says again

Unmatched '.

i havent found why it happened

Yes,
and '%m%m' s/b '%m%d',
and in csh, you have to escape linefeed inside single quotes.
Well, it helps to have one to test with.
Short doses of csh are enough!

You can call ksh scripts even in csh, as long as they are executable and begin with #!/usr/bin/ksh (or wherever your ksh is)!

but i have to write in Cshell can anybody else help?
