Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting file renaming with if else clause Post 302576601 by danieladna on Friday 25th of November 2011 10:07:47 AM

I think I am starting to understand what you did:
find ./ \!-name "*.jpg" -type f

Find in this directory all files that are not jpg files! Correct?
How would I make this statement for 2 files at once? Jpg and png?
Later on you are creating a variable called fname? Does this name come from
-name -type f: fname ???

Last: How would you go about the opposite: Strip all files of the jpg:
find ./ -name "*.jpg" -type f

do mv "${fname}" "${fname}" ??? How do you say you want to get rid of the jpg...?

Thank you

The igrep utility is invoked as follows: igrep [options] pattern filename... Where pattern is a POSIX.2 regular expression (just like the Unix/Linux grep(1) command), and filename (and any following names) specify images or directories that should be searched. An image file will "match" if any of its metadata contains values contain substring that are recognized regular expression. The image files may be of any format recognized by OpenImageIO (i.e., for which ImageInput plugins are available). Example: $ igrep Jack *.jpg bar.jpg: Keywords = Carly; Jack foo.jpg: Keywords = Jack test7.jpg: ImageDescription = Jack on vacation For a complete description, see /usr/share/doc/libopenimageio-dev/openimageio.pdf.gz.
