This is a simple this is a script for sorting images and camera files into folders per date. I used to use the software that came with my second digital camera, Canon ZoomBrowser, to do this, but as it was the only thing I used the software for, I though a wee Tcl script made a lot more sense. It creates the folders it needs as it goes. For this is uses YYYY_MM_DD, as in 2011_06_22. The whole code is just pasted in below, it's got a few comments in, but any bits that don't make sense, just add a question. ====== cd "C:/docs/My Pictures/" puts "photo sorter" # glob for searching set file_list [glob \ "to_sort/*.jpg" \ "to_sort/*.avi" \ "to_sort/*.jpeg" \ "to_sort/*.3gp" \ "to_sort/*/*.jpg" \ "to_sort/*/*.avi" \ "to_sort/*/*.jpeg" \ "to_sort/*/*.3gp" \ "to_sort/*/*/*.jpg" \ "to_sort/*/*/*.avi" \ "to_sort/*/*/*.jpeg" \ "to_sort/*/*/*.3gp" \ "to_sort/*/*/*/*.jpg" \ "to_sort/*/*/*/*.avi" \ "to_sort/*/*/*/*.jpeg" \ "to_sort/*/*/*/*.3gp" \ "to_sort/*/*/*/*/*.jpg" \ "to_sort/*/*/*/*/*.avi" \ "to_sort/*/*/*/*/*.jpeg" \ "to_sort/*/*/*/*/*.3gp" \ ] # utility vars set filecount 0 set newdircount 0 #loo foreach myfile $file_list { puts $myfile puts [file stat $myfile ctime] set file_time [file mtime $myfile] puts [ clock format $file_time ] set file_year [ clock format $file_time -format %Y ] set file_month [ clock format $file_time -format %m ] set file_day [ clock format $file_time -format %d ] puts $file_year puts $file_month puts $file_day set folder_name [ clock format $file_time -format %Y ]_[ clock format $file_time -format %m ]_[ clock format $file_time -format %d ] puts $folder_name puts "check it exists" if { [file isdirectory $folder_name] == 0 } { puts "no it doesn't, so we'll make it" file mkdir $folder_name incr newdircount } puts "move $myfile to $folder_name" file rename $myfile $folder_name incr filecount } puts "copied $filecount files" puts "created $newdircount new directories" ====== <> Example | File
