Lift the date command of of the loop, and use "find . -type f -maxdepth 1"
instead of for file in * followed by the "test -f".
Something like this:-
msg="From - "date +%c`"
find /dir -maxdepth 1 -type f \
-exec /bin/sh -c "( echo $msg ; cat {} ) >> Misc" \; \
-print0 | xargs -0 /bin/rm -f
The bottleneck here is probably going to be the repeated exec of the
shell. You could feed this through find2perl and modify the result
to remove the call to /bin/sh.
