Find/Grep Syntax Question
Hi Folks,
I am trying to dig through about 100 directories that have 1 or 2 .jpg images stored in each. I want to copy the .jpg to another file in the root directory. Really my ultimate goal is not to have to dig down into each directory to copy the images individually. I thought I could use a find | grep *.jpg -exec cp ./Images {} \;
obvously, that syntax is incorrect.
I am using a mac and I believe the shell is Korn.
Thanks--
