I'm trying to make a logfile with the timestamp at the end of the file when it was made.

Example file name:

process_log.30Aug21:03:07

If you are creating the file in shell, then the following will do the trick: process_log.`date +%d%b%k:%M:%S` Please read man page of date(1) command if you want to know more about formats in date command. Regards, -Kastus
