(I'm working on an item database for FF XI)

You told me they were in directories called a b c d e f etc...

Well, yeah, I was using those as examples. I assume the script needs to be changed, then? Whoops... ~.~

Do the subdirectories also have names? How about the numbered ones? Are they all single-digit or what?

Anyhow, try redownloading it. It might work now.

The ammo_and_mis has three subdirectories: ammunition, fishing_gear, and pet_items. Within each directory (the three under ammo_and_mis, and all the others) are directories labelled 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 (not all main directories have all the numbered directories), which contain the images.

Edit: This one worked, but only in the ammo_and_mis directory, and I got lots of errors from mogrify trying to open all the various Thumbs.db files. Is there a way to get it to skip them?

Depends. Are all of the files the same type (ie all bmp, all jpeg) ?

Yeah, they're all bitmaps.

Try the newly updated version.

Normal version yields a bunch of cd errors, looks like it's trying /cygdrive/c/documents. Modified version with quotes around the "$(DIRECTORY)" (or whatever it is) yields a bunch of "find: [0-9]: No such file or directory". Both versions yield an "alias: not found" as the first error to show up.

Try it again. And it's ${DIRECTORY}. That's how you encase variables in bash scripts.

Cool, I'll try it out when I get home (in school right now). I really ought to set up VNC and dyndns sometime...

<marque>I HATE code<marque/>

Or at least a SSH server...

Yeah, except I'm running Windows, not Linux. As much as I love Linux, it's too much work... :P

Edit: Nope, still only works on ammo_and_mis, still gives me cd errors...

It works if I do this, but it runs very slowly and I get a bunch of:

DIRECTORY=swords: not found
cd: can't cd to
find: [0-9]: No such file or directory
cd: can't cd to /cygdrive/c/documents

---
Changes:

DIRECTORY=$i ------------> "DIRECTORY"=$i
cd ${DIRECTORY} ------------> cd "${DIRECTORY}"

Now then, is there an automated way to get the images out of the numbered directories and back into their parent directories (e.g., /staves/3/clp??.bmp -> /staves/clp??.bmp)? :P

Um. You can't put quotes around a variable name when declaring it in bash. I think cygwin has a 3.x series bash available, you should download it. Because yours is obviously weirded up.

I dunno, I just installed it a few days ago...
