>From what you said, you need to keep the files around, and they should 
only have the last 100 lines in them. Assuming the need no backup, 
typing the following should work:
ksh
for i in `find /path -name "*.log" -o -name "*.txt"`;do
tail -100 $1 > /tmp/$i.tmp
mv /tmp/$i.tmp $i
done

Hi everyone

I have a directory which contains *.log files and txt files. I need a
shell  script which  can clear all lines in *.log files and keeping some
latest 100 lines . I can put the script as cron job, so that it can
run in weekly basis. can anyone have?

Thanks in advance
Balaji
