Try (in bash/ksh/zsh) touch junk precious $'junk\nprecious'; ls -1 | grep junk | xargs -l rm. You didn't really care about that precious file, did you? Not to mention that restriction to at most 1000 files, or the fact that you find 03.jpg when you're looking for 3.jpg. I retract my comment for second-best, this is really broken, and it's incomplete to boot. | |

| Apr 23, 2012 at 23:16 | comment | added | Gilles 'SO- stop being evil' | Parsing the output of ls is not a good idea. It'll mostly work here, but a wildcard-based solution will completely work, so why settle for second-best? | |
