Hello,


I want a simple script which when run will copy all files of a certain type within a volume (and all the files of this type in the directories and all subdirectories)... to another directory.

Any help is appreciated.

You might need to elaborate on that part a bit.

Let's say we can use the extension... maybe to grab jpegs?

find -x /path/to/source/folder -iname "*.jpg" -print0 |
xargs -0 -n1 -I% cp % /path/to/target/folder

...might work.

Thanks Hal, I thought about it a bit more and the folder structure was always goiing to be the same, so I just used cp intstead. Thanks a lot though, I'm going to use this at sometime I'm sure.
