Simple script for separating files
Hi all,
I was wondering if someone could help me writing a simple script on separating files into separate folders.
I have 92 files called various things and I want to separate these folders like so:
Create a folder called "1" and put files 1-23 in it
Create a folder called "2" and put files 24-46 in it
Create a folder called "3" and put files 47-69 in it
Create a folder called "4" and put files 70-92 in it
Again the files aren't names 1 thru 92, so is there a way to say take the first 23, and then the next 23 and so on....
How would I go about doing this in csh?
Thanks in advance!
