Solaris

I'm confused by your tests. What I wrote is a ksh script. You apparently named it test.csh but finally run it through the sh interpreter. These are three different scripting languages and their syntax isn't compatible.

Please use a proper extension if you want too (.ksh) and make this script executable. Run it directly by providing its full path and without specifying an interpreter.

eg:

Code:

mv test.csh ls-timestamp.ksh
chmod +x ls-timestamp.ksh
./ls-timestamp.ksh

@elph
Omitting to mention that this is "C shell" environment with Japanese character set has not helped the posters.

Anyone pursuing this post will need an understanding of this environment.

LC_ALL=C ls -l | perl -e 'my %hash = ( "Jan"=> "01" , "Feb" => "02" , "Mar" => "03" , "Apr" => "04"); # add other months
while (<>){
chomp; s/\s+/ /g;
my @arr=split(" ");
print "$arr[-1]\t";
my $mon_value = $hash{$arr[-4]};
my $day = $arr[-3];
my $date = "2010".$mon_value.$day; # assuming year is 2010 if year present use the appropriate column
print "$date\n";
}'

I dont have solaris or japanese environment . So may be u can try if this helps. make sure the months specified in the hash are of the format you get in the ls output

Hi, jlliagre
Sorry for my carzy output last time. Thanks to your script, I got it at last what I'd like to have!
Here's the result for test.txt which was made in March 31.

> ./ls-timestamp.ksh
20100331
(This result was just chanded $@ to target file, "ls test.txt | while read line" and delete "$(ls -ld "$line")"
at the end from your script)

I'll try it to work on C shell for our environment. If I'll have any problems, pls let me post it as other topic.
Thank you so much

Hi, daptal
I really appreciated all of your advise. To see your script, I'd lovely to learn perl more and more, which will help us our intentions

Hi, methyl
You're right. I'm sure to post the output in universalistic way in my next topic

Dear all,
That was my first time to post here and so glad to know I was posting the right place.Thanks for all of your attention and advices.

Sincerly,
elph

Glad you finally got it and thanks for the feedback.
