Thank you so much for very thoughtful questions. It makes it easier put into words now
Yes I would like to count hyphens just in between the [] on the 3rd line.
If the filename is just one word, I believe there will always be [] on 3rd line.
However, if that one worded filename's pronunciation has only one sound like kill, day, ball, and etc, there will be no hyphen in it.
For example, kill.txt
Code:
****** kill1 ******
[kil] /kɪl/
IPA Syllables
And filenames with more than one word like this will have no brackets and no hyphens on the 3rd line.
Like this,
cats and dogs.txt
Code:
****** cats and dogs ******

So yes if there are still [] on the 3rd line but no hyphens, I would want to move it to 0H folder.
Those with 1 hyphen for 1H, and 2 for 2H, and so on.
But if there isn't any brackets at all, it would probably be left behind or put into unknown like you mentioned.
I think its best to verify if there's [ before counting hyphens as I believe there's many of [] beyond the 3rd line in some file.
OK. We're making progress, but I still don't have clear requirements. Please answer each of the following questions:
You gave an example in post #21 you showed us a line 3 that contained 20 hyphens. Of those, 19 were between the [ and the ]. You originally said you wanted that file to go into the folder 18H, which was the number of hyphens between the [ and the comma and space that appears before the ]. Are you now saying that file should go into 18H (the number of hyphens between the [ and the closest following space or ]), or should that file go into 19H (the number of hyphens between the [ and the ])?
If a filename contains one or more spaces (e.g., cats and dogs.txt) there is no need to look at the contents of the file. Is this correct? Should that file be left in its current location or moved to 0H?
For files that do not have a space in the filename, verify that the 1st character on the third line is a [. If it isn't what should I do? Leave the file where it is and move on to the next file? Keep reading lines in that file until I find a line where the first character on the line is a [ and move that file based on the number of hyphens on that line? If you want something other than these choices, please give detailed, explicit directions on what to do.
What is the name of the directory containing these 690,000 files?
What directory should be used as the target directory where the directories 0H, 1H, etc. be created?
