Do you have a sample set with which to try this? Do you know what the expected results are from the operation you are wanting to perform? Do the commands below generate those expected results?
If so, can you share those with the group? For example ... $ touch foo.html foo.css foo.txt a-foo.txt $ tree . ├── a-foo.txt ├── foo.css ├── foo.html └── foo.txt 0 directories, 4 files $ find ./ -type f ! \( -iname "*.html" -o -iname "*.css" \) -print -delete .//foo.txt .//a-foo.txt $ find ./ -type f ! -iname "*.txt" -print -delete .//foo.html .//foo.css $ tree . 0 directories, 0 files Regards, - Robert On Fri, Mar 26, 2021 at 10:35 AM '[email protected]' via Linux Users Group <[email protected]> wrote: > > hello again > > is this an idea to copy a*.txt? > > > find ./ -type f ! \( -iname "*.html" -o -iname "*.css" \) -delete > > find ./ -type f ! -iname "*.txt" -delete > > > regards Sophie > > > > > > > Am 24.02.21 um 17:45 schrieb [email protected]: > > good afternoon > > > > Sorry for asking again > > > > can sth like this help? > > > > |find . -name '*.txt' -exec rsync -R {} ~/alltxt/ \; Regards Sophie | > > > > > > -- > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Linux Users Group. > To post a message, send email to [email protected] > To unsubscribe, send email to [email protected] > For more options, visit our group at > http://groups.google.com/group/linuxusersgroup > References can be found at: http://goo.gl/anqri > Please remember to abide by our list rules (http://tinyurl.com/LUG-Rules) > --- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Linux Users Group" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to [email protected]. > To view this discussion on the web visit > https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/linuxusersgroup/e2e5ce0b-be69-dea2-0a1e-4afd9cf95e2b%40yahoo.de. -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Linux Users Group.
