I've hit a problem I can't quite figure out which a bash script I'm writing. I'm trying to copy backup files in the format 2013-August-18--1123.zip to an NFS share. I want to have the script copy the file with just the date. In bash I've setup vars that get the current date:
# Date variables log_year=`date "+%Y"` log_month=`date "+%B"` log_day=`date "+%d"` # Filename format YYYY_MM_DD--HHMM.zip filename=$log_year"-"$log_month"-"$log_day"--"/*".zip" The problem is I don't really care about the stuff after the '--'. I.e. from the CLI I'd just 'ls 2013-August-18--*.zip' to get all the files with that date in the file name. How can I do that in a bash script? -- Caesar si viveret, ad remum dareris.
