I have a specific set (all ending with .bam) of downloaded files in a directory /home/cmccabe/Desktop/NGS/API/2-15-2016. What I am trying to do is use a match to $2 in name to rename the downloaded files. To make things a more involved the date of the folder is unique and in the header of name the date of the match exists and is where the match in name is located. I am not sure how to do this or if it is possible. I have tried a sed command with no luck, maybe that isn't the best way. Thank you :).
