Improve .sh script loops over arrays

[earthbound19]

This can work:

readarray -d '' array < <(find . -name "*.$1" -print0)

-- from here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/54561526/1397555
-- but so can this; subscriptable; adds stuff that sorts by file date (which I want here):

array=(`find . -name "*.$1" -print0 -printf "%T@ %Tc %p\n" | gsort -n | gsed 's/.*[AM|PM] \.\/\(.*\)/\1/g'`)

echo "${array[4]}"
echo ""

for element in ${array[@]}
do
	echo $element
done

I may not ever get this conversion done with all scripts; if I find any broken, I'll fix it to this end. Meanwhile, I've ported this information into a file documentationHeader.md, which is intended to be put at the start of a DOCUMENTATION.md file generated by makeDocumentation.md. Closing.

An AKTUL best true way to create arrays:

array=( $(find . -maxdepth 1 -type f -iname \*.png -printf '%f\n') )

The outer parenthesis supposedly makes it a true bash array.
