Hello,
Sorry for the lack for clarity.
I want to list all the file end in .bib, except the file ending by -e.bib
This can be done by (from the shell command)
ls -d !(*(a)(-e)).bib
or by
find . !(*(a)(-e)).bib
but, as soon as I put one of these commands in a script file, it does not work
Is it clear?
Yes, but find uses totally different tests. Try:
find . -name "*.bib" -not -name "*-e.bib"
In other words 'find from the current directory all files named "*.bib"
and NOT named "*-e.bib"'
Make sense?
