Move files with a certain suffix based on how many files are in another folder

Hello,


First time poster. I am looking for a way to script or program the process of moving files from one folder to another, automatically, based on the count of files in the destination folder.


I was thinking a shell script would work, but am open to the suggestions of the experts here.


Files I am trying to move:
UNIQUEID.rmdcall


Files start at:
/tmp


Files need to go to:
/tmp/test


Details:
1. If the count of .rmdcall files in /tmp is greater than 0, then count the .rmdcall files in /tmp/test, otherwise do nothing.


2. If the count of .rmdcalls in /tmp/test is less than 30, then move up to 100 of the oldest .rmdcall files from /tmp to /tmp/test, otherwise do nothing


3. Repeat the process every 5 seconds


Thanks for any help you can provide, it is greatly appreciated!
