Thank you all, I will be doing the relevant reading (on glob) and modifying the script accordingly. I've already copied and tried this
...and it does what I want. I've tried the following modification in my script though, and something funny happens again.
This gives me the following error: tar: /home/user/results//home/user/results/results_back.tar.gz: Cannot open: No such file or directory So the path to the tar.gz file is messed up obviously. But then my hopes build up because I see that it finds the tar.gz file and that's when I stupidly try to be "clever" by removing $results completely from the command and only keeping $_. In that case I'm just getting nothing, it fails quietly. Why is that?
