<0> how can I loop backwards? eg start at 30 and count backwards?
<1> a for loop.
<1> for ((i=30 ; i>0 ; i--)); do ...
<0> welll I keep getting: ksh: 0403-057 Syntax error: `(' is not expected.

<1> then you have an ancient ksh, or a not-really-ksh.
<0> ^^
<1> and you cannot manage to figure out how to write the same thing without for?
<0> aix 5.3 standard issue
<0> oh well, I need to cycle through a directory and skim off a day at a time's data
<0> the idea was to do a for loop counting backwards, and use find -mtime 30, 29, 28
<0> etc
<0> good scheme?
<1> sounds pretty wacky.
<0> basically I have a directory with thousands of files in it, which have never been house-kept
<0> so I want to go through and file them in directories named by date
<1> i=30; while [ $i -gt 0 ]; do ...; i=`expr $i - 1`; done
<2> Maybe instead of using "find" x-times ...
<2> Take the output of 1 find/ ls, and sort them into dirs by their date.
<0> yes, that has a but more elegance about it
Return to
#ksh
