This crap will find all jpg files with names from three to five characters.

find . -type f -regextype sed -regex ".*/[A-Za-z0-9]\{3,5\}\.jpg"

awk, sed , find, grep etc...

Answer 3

You can do this, of course, if you put the length of the extension 4 (point plus extension)

find "path/to/dir/" -type f -printf "%f\n" | grep -E "^.{7,9}$"
