Good Day all,

I have the below command:

# ls -latr | grep "Jun 30"

What I have to add to this command in order to remove his results?

Thanks,

A Cossa

Hi,

do this:

ls -latr | awk '/Jun 30/{system("rm " $NF)}'

I've put the grep expression into awk to you have to pipe only once (no grep needed)

Greetings
