What I was thinking the config file would look like is something like this:

Code:
<directory> <filetype> <daterange>

so maybe an example would be like:

Code:
\markdir\ *.csv Feb 04 13:35
\markdir\ *.gz Jan 22 15:50
\markdir\ *.mdl Dec 14 2014
\markdir\ *.tlg Aug 01 2014
\markdir\ *.zdf Mar 05 2013

The dates are listed by mm dd hh:mm if in the current year, and mm dd yyyy if in the previous year. This makes it sort of complex I think. Thank you so much for your help!

I think I can be more clear with this, so let me try Smilie

I need the script to run at 0700, and check multiple directories for newly created files. The directories to check, and extensions therein can be specified by the config file. If newly created files exist, then move them to a temp directory.

So I guess the config file really only needs the directory to look in, and the extension to check.

Example:

Code:
\markdir\ *.csv

So it will check \markdir\ to see if there are any file(s) whose creation date matches the current date.

Is that more clear? I hope I did not make more complexity.
