Data making change in file without opening it
hi everyone
i have script name cs-700kl looking like this
mv klk_ta_01780_023 klk_ta_01780_023_m
tr "[\200-\232]" "[\140-\172]" <klk_ta_01780_023_m> klk_ta_01780_023
i'm running it in sh cs-700kl
i want every time that he will take the value of the end of the file
in this example klk_ta_01780_023 the value 023
and will add this 1 so that the next time he will run klk_ta_01780_024
buy the way
i need to take all the name of the file and change it because if i'll change just the number so when i get to file number 32 he will replace this one
tr "[\200-\232]" "[\140-\172]" too like tr "[\200-\233]" "[\140-\172]"
and i do'nt want it to happend
trying this :
awk '{gsub("klk_ta_01780_023","klk_ta_01780_024" \
); print}' cs-700kl
awk: Syntax error near line 1
awk: illegal statement near line 1
please help Smilie
thank's a lot

latd.conf

LATD.CONF(5)							File Formats Manual						      LATD.CONF(5)

NAME

       latd.conf - LAT configuration file

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/latd.conf

DESCRIPTION

       /etc/latd.conf is a shell script (run by /bin/sh) that is run when latd is started up using the latcp -s command.
       It contains commands used to customise lat for your site and usually consists of a list of latcp commands.
       latd.conf is run with a minimal PATH and a minimal environment. The variable $LATCP points to the latcp binary used to invoke the script.

   EXAMPLE
	  # /etc/latd.conf
	  # This is a sample configuration file for latd
	  # it is run as s shell script from latcp -s with a minimal
	  # environment and PATH. latcp should be invoked using the
	  # environment variable $LATCP.
	  #
	  # You can fiddle with all the latd parameters you like in here,
	  # the first service announcement will not be made until this
	  # script completes.
	  #

	  # Set the multicast timeout to 30 seconds
	  $LATCP -m 30

	  # Add another login service
	  $LATCP -A -a ZAPHOD -r 100

	  # Add a queued reverse LAT service to a printer on a DECserver
	  $LATCP -A -p /dev/lat/printer -Hdecserver -Vdecserver -Q

	  # Only advertise our service in groups 1-10 and 200
	  $LATCP -G 1-10,200

	  exit
