I'm trying to rename files based on what time it is *now*....
echo `date` | cut -b 25-28,12-13,15-16,18-19
gives me what I want to use for the file name, but I
can't figure out how to get it into a variable for use
later in the script when I rename the file. I've tried
variablename=
followed by the above commands surrounded by quotes,
parenthesis, back tics, etc. - all produce syntax errors.
Somebody point me in the right direction.
Thanks,
-jdr-
