NAME

mkdir_heute - create and find directories interactive

mkdir_heute

mkdir_heute --basedir=~/archive

mkdir_heute --listlines=15

VERSION

This documentation refers to version 0.9.

USAGE

This script scans a basedir (~/A) for directories named YYYY/MM/DD where YYYY, MM and DD are numbers corresponding to a year, month, day of month and prints them on STDERR.

The script returns the choosen directory on STDOUT and may be used in a shell alias like this:

alias cdheute='cd `mkdir_heute`'

so that you may say 'cdheute' on the command line and your working directory will be changed to the choosen directory.

When invoked you may

• choose a directory from the list with it's number

• choose the current directory with 'q' or '.'

• advance to the next or last page with 'n' or 'l'

• return to the previous or first page with 'p' or 'f'

• constrain the shown directories with '/' and a pattern

• constrain the creation date of the directories with 'd' followed by '=', '<' or '>' and a date (eg. 2009, 2009-04 or 2009-04-24)

• create a new directory with '+' followed by a description for it

DESCRIPTION

Command Line Arguments

--basedir

With this argument it is possible to redirect the script to another base directory under which it scans for project descriptions to display. A new directory would be created below this directory.

mkdir_heute --basedir=~/archive

mkdir_heute -b ~/archive

--listlines

Since it is possible that on some systems Term::ReadKey::GetTerminalSize() does not deliver a meaningful value, you may skip the invocation of that function by providing the nummer of lines for the listing of descriptions on the command line.

mkdir_heute --listlines=15

mkdir_heute -l 15
