hello fellas. i was looking for a way to compress files (.wav) older than 30 days. i created a small script to do the job. #!/bin.bash
FILES=`find . -mtime -30 | xargs` tar --no-recursion -czf backup_ *feb*_2013.tgz "${FILES}" rm -rf "${FILES}" the compressed files have the following format g303- *20130205*-060552-1360037152.419.wav i am stuck on how to edit the script so it will automatically create the month of the backup. Now the naming is manual. any suggestions please?
