I have downloaded Rob Snow's perl script from the contrib directory of
CVS. I am able to use the script to convert the "non-friendly"
filenames to "friendly" filenames and am not trying to create a Bash
script to make links from them.
In his readme, he references a small Bash script to use mythencode. I
am trying to take that and modify it to make friendly links using
mythname.pl. I have:
----
#!/bin/sh
for i in `find /home/media/tv_recordings/*.nuv -mtime +1`; do
./mythname.pl --host localhost -s $i
done
---
This outputs the shown names. Now I need to input them to the ln
command. I've tried various pipes and redirects in combination with the
ln command but can never quite get it right. (No experience in Bash
scripting). How can I do this? Thanks.
