To save time trying to find files in AB20, could some UNIX programmer
come up with a shell script that takes the FILES file and processes it.
I would like a script that strips out all files uploaded before 1/1/91.

However, more complex ones could produce lists of all files containing
the letters xyz in their filename, sort them in directory order, remove
all non-Amiga files etc. etc.... Who can come up with the best one ?

Thanks...
