In the following script I'm trying to have an automated task to move all the screen shots I have taken with the "Prt Scr" button from ~/Pictures to ~/Pictures/ScreenShots
Any ideas why it's not working. I did it at first with the mv command but was told by my instructor do it with a for loop because of globbing issues.
#!/bin/bash
# This is a script to home keep my $HOME/Pictures directory from keeting clutered up
# with screenshots by moving them into their own directory.
ls ~/Pictures/Screenshots\ from*.png > /dev/null 2> /dev/null
EXITSTATUS=${?}
if [ ${EXITSTATUS} == 0 ]
then
for ${i} in $( ls ~/Pictures/Screenshot\ from*.png )
do
mv ${i} /home/garrett/Pictures/ScreenShots/
done
fi
#mv /home/garrett/Pictures/Screenshot\ from*.png /home/garrett/Pictures/ScreenShots/
#END#
