As it is: no. I think you misinterpreted the goal of this forum: we are NOT a free programming service for people unwilling to learn that on their own. What we do is help people to help themselves.

So: i have explained to you how you could write such a script. Take this explanation, modify it accordingly to fit to your requirements, then (try to) implement it. If you get stuck on some detail: come back here, we will help you with explanations which you can take and make your script better ... and so on, until you have w working script.

But we expect you to work yourself! We will not do it for you!

I hope this helps.

anything similar in Linux?
