Before I fully make the switch to Linux I’m looking for options to replace an old Windows program called SCRU. You set a folder to watch, and an output folder and it automatically copies specified extensions or extracts rar into the output folder.
I’m trying to figure out if there’s a way to do this in terminal and haven’t dug into scripts yet, just want to know of it’s possible.
It might be possible with
inotify.Interesting, i saw that earlier and I’ll look into it some more. I’ve never done a bash script so I was hesitant. Thanks
You can throw stuff like that into perplexity.ai as a starting point (it’s free):

You can then continue to ask about stuff you want to understand. It’s a great learning tool.
Not an ai guy but appreciate you taking the time!
It shouldn’t be that hard. Use Shellcheck to check for mistakes. Good luck!
Appreciate it!
