So, my question is: how to move all dir/sub-dir from the list to the specific directory, let say "/tmp/test2" ?
I have try several method, using "for i in xxx", "while read", but didn't work.
Since the directory list have a white space in it, it is always failed when I tried to move using printf/echo and even directly using mv. see below sample.
Code:
jarvis:test briar$ sed 's/^/"/g;s/$/"/g' /tmp/test/listfolder.txt
"/tmp/test/folder 1"
"/tmp/test/folder 2"
"/tmp/test/folder 3"
jarvis:test briar$ sed 's/^/"/g;s/$/"/g' /tmp/test/listfolder.txt | while read x ; do mv "$x" "/tmp/test2"; done
mv: rename "/tmp/test/folder 1" to /tmp/test2/folder 1": No such file or directory
mv: rename "/tmp/test/folder 2" to /tmp/test2/folder 2": No such file or directory
mv: rename "/tmp/test/folder 3" to /tmp/test2/folder 3": No such file or directory

I do not want to assign user the same group of that directories too.... (0 Replies)
