merge same (beginning) filenames into different variables

  • Thread-topic: merge same (beginning) filenames into different variables

Hi,

I want to do the following:

For example I have 10 files in a folder.
test88
testKK2
test88
testKK2
testA87
testBC
testA87
testBC
testA89
testB90

What I want to do is merge the files with the same "beginning" (the files are longer than the example) into different variables. The output of the variable would be in this case:
VAR1:
test88
test88

VAR2:
testKK2
testKK2

VAR3:
testA87
testA87

VAR4:
testBC
testBC

VAR5:
testA89

VAR6:
testB90

any ideas are much appreciated,
jan
