FileSort v1.00 CMD Script - AceInfinity - 08-29-2011

Here's my newest script for sorting files by file extension into different subdirectories within a main directory.

Save this as Anything.cmd:
Code:
@echo off
@color 0B
cls

title Ace FileSort v1.00

set ver=v1.00
set var=0

echo The files in this directory will be moved into different folders
echo.
echo Do you want to continue^?
echo.
echo.   [Y] - Continue
echo.   [Q] - Quit and Exit
echo.

choice /c:YQ>nul
if errorlevel 2 goto Exit
if errorlevel 0 goto Start

That's a great script , just tested it !
Thanks for the share ! : )

RE: FileSort v1.00 CMD Script - AceInfinity - 08-30-2011

No problem, I could have added every possible file extension I could think of but I couldn't be bothered at the time, people are going to use it for general (common) file formats anyway I would assume.

RE: FileSort v1.00 CMD Script - Inventor - 08-30-2011

Great job, thank you for it. How long did it take to write this?

RE: FileSort v1.00 CMD Script - AceInfinity - 08-30-2011

Around 10 minutes, not very long at all, I do all sorts of things in batch

RE: FileSort v1.00 CMD Script - ScripT - 08-30-2011

Wow, just tried this. Great script.

Good job Cool.

RE: FileSort v1.00 CMD Script - AceInfinity - 08-30-2011

I have another great script that will read files from a text file line by line and delete them when the file is dropped onto the batch file. Just about done with it.

RE: FileSort v1.00 CMD Script - Prominent - 08-30-2011

Make sure to post it here when it's done : )
