Old 11-13-2008
Okay, I finally got a break in work that pays to try this out. Here's the script:

Code:
srcdir=$1
targetdir=$2

oldifs=$IFS
IFS='
'
find $srcdir |
while read f
do
    dest=$(echo $f | sed 's#$srcdir#$targetdir#g')
    echo $srcdir
    echo $targetdir
    echo $dest
    echo $f
    echo $f |sed 's/\/library\/\data\/Total List/$targetdir/g'
#    [ -d "$f" ] && mkdir -p "$dest" || ln "$f" "$dest"
done
IFS=$oldifs

And the results (just to provide a sample) are:

Quote:
/library/data/Total List/data point 1
/library/data/Ordered/1
/library/data/Total List/data point 1/subset 1/image1.iso
/library/data/Total List/data point 1/subset 1/image1.iso
$targetdir/data point 1/subset 1/image1.iso
Thoughts/Suggestions?
