Hey all,
I come seeking scripting (perhaps) help. I'd like to extract the date and time from screengrabs. They'll look like this:
chrome_2020-08-02_02-18-12.png
Layout_2020-08-01_12-43-46.png
and I'd like to select the:
08-02_02-18
08-01_12-43
bits and put the resulting text in the copy buffer. I will only be selecting one file at a time, I just have a couple selected here to show the exact part I want to select in files differently named to start with. I know I can copy a filename with Clipboard COPYNAMES=nopaths
but I'm not sure how to extract the characters I need. Can I use Regex here?
Hope you're all well, and staying safe in Covid land...
All the best,
B
