I would like to list multiple files in a range. My files structure is PR181111???.s01 or PR189999???.s01 so the variable I have to use are 1111 and 9999. This can be an operation to do several times a day with new files, hence is not a single-time listing.
In a script I tried to use (just an example)
ls *[0987-0991]*.s01my output
PR180985026.s01 PR180987023.s01 PR180991022.s01
PR180987021.s01 PR180987025.s01 PR180991024.s01Could someone explain me why I get the first file (PR180985026.s01)?
The first file is outside the range I specified, therefore I am doing something wrong.

I try to list only file in range PR180987???.s01-PR180991???.s01
That can be done with for instance:
ls PR18{0987,0988,0989,0990,0991}???.s01
ls PR18[09]{87,88,89,90,91}???.s01
ls PR18[09]{87-91}???.s01
