	Hi,
	 
	Sorry for the slightly non-Oracle post.
	 
	I am after a UNIX code snippet that will help me copy archive

logs to another directory BUT not if they already exist. So if only 2 archive logs are generated between script runs only the two new ones should copy. I know I can do this using sysdate - "time interval" but I am trying to avoid that.

Thanks in advance,

Sujatha Madan.
