Perl Scripts
Perl scripts that I have written to accomplish varying tasks. All files are in PDF format.- Advanced File Copy Script - This script copies files from the source directory to the destination directory. If the file to be copied exists in both directories, the script determines which file has the most recent modification date and keeps that file.
- File Archive Renamer - This script accepts a directory as a command line parameter and renames all files in that directory by adding a unix timestamp of the last date the file was modified to the beginning of the file name. For example, a file named 'SampleFile.doc' that was last modified on January 1st of 2007 at exactly noon would get renamed to '1167652800-SampleFile.doc'. This is extremely useful in archiving files.
