Subject: Moving files based on file content
Posted: Mon Sep 12, 2016 1:35 pm (GMT -6)
I have an application that produces XML files for communication with another application. It places all of them in one directory. If I were interfacing with only one other application that would be fine... unfortunately, I need to send some of these XML files to one application and others to a completely different application. The only way to determine which application they need to go to is to evaluate the first few lines of the file and look for specific values. Once I have that value, I want to move the file to one directory or another. Once there, then I can use FTP or other mechanism to send the files on to their destination. Does Total Commander have a feature such as this, or if not, does anyone know of a utility that can do what I've described here? thanks in advance!
