command-line
I have a folder contains files name as: xxx.get.txt
and xxx.resp.txt
xxx.get.txt, xxx.resp.txt
yyy.get.txt, yyy.resp.txt
zzz.get.txt, zzz.resp.txt, etc
each prefix xxx
should have two corresponding files, .get.txt
and .resp.txt
However, now I calculate the number of .get.txt
and the number of .resp.txt
files, they are not equal, there're ten more .get.txt
. I want to find out, which .get.txt
files do not have ´.resp.txt´ file
Is it possible?
Many thanks!
