FileSort

Snippet from the site:

Do you have a folder on your computer with thousands and thousands of random files in it?

I do.

I have a folder called “Inbox” on my computer, where I put all the files I download from the Internet and all the files I get from LAN Parties. Pictures, MP3s, Movies and that sort of thing.

It’s a big job sorting that folder.

To make the job easier, I have created FileSort.

FileSort is a FREE program helps you organise a messy folder.

It could do with a load of more features, but this is the best FREE one I've found so far.

Anyone else have better suggestions?

Is FileSort compatible with Linux computers?

It was made with the .NET Framework.

So I doubt it.

Though it doesn't sound too hard to create in C++ or C# for multiple operating systems.

I have a folder on my C drive labelled 'Digital photos'. It contains all the photos that I have taken since I had my camera. I divide it into labelled sub folders, all labels are descriptive. So far there are 65 sub folders all showing under one another. Dead easy, no need for a program. :D

That is true, but this is useful when using either MSN, or Firefox and downloading/receiving files. This helps organize the files into folder structures automatically (I'd have something like a cron running it once a day, for files that are over a day old) moving compressed files into one folder, pictures into another, etc etc.

It could also be a good backup tool if it could copy the same files to multiple directories. This program has a lot of potential :).

That's an awesome amount of pictures have there! Good job, lol.
