I need to move multiple (say 10 files) from one location to another location. My selection would be like this...
ls -ltr *.arc | head ---> Need to move top 10 files with single command without iterating in loop. I know we can move files like this with find command but not sure if I can move top 10 files in any directory to another one.
but it won't necessarily find the top ten biggest without an extra pipe to sort.
Are you thinking about performance? You've got a decent solution already.
