How to Excluding Extensions Creating RAR & Uploading it

Linux and Unix-Like Debian
1

for media files in directory i want change every special char in name to "_" , create screenshots, get media information, then cat that info in 1 file, after that i want split (only) media files (not *.jpg,*.txt, etc.) with rar (including some file with info in each archive, and give each archive comment), than upload to myftp.com all archive parts and all *.jpg(export url in file), after all done delete archive. Please help me how to do that.. im newbie in unix.

Yes, the do cannot not be right after the for var in list. The mv looks OK. Why not do that first. Might check that there is no target else echo Collision: orig target

DGPickett,
Thanks for take a part in this thread & help me to find solution on this question!

for file in *
do
mv "$file" $(echo "$file" | sed 's/[^A-Za-z0-9.]//g')
done 
rm -r ./scrsht
mkdir ./scrsht
ls *.jpg *.log *.txt | xargs rm -f
for file in *
do
/root/scr/mtn -i -t -h 150 -w 700 -c 2 -r 3 -k ffffff -B 100 -E 80 -g 2 -N_.txt "$file"
done
ls *.txt | xargs cat > techinfo.log
ls *.txt | xargs rm -f
ls *.jpg | xargs mv ./scrsht
mv techinfo.log ./scrsht

But i dont know how to move to the relative dir all .jpg files.. trying "ls *.jpg | xargs mv ./scrsht" and after listening dir for jpg files mv think that the name of 2nd file is a path..

Let the shell do the walking?

mv *.jpg scrsht

If you extract two files from the archive to stdout, they are concatenated. Well, I am awash in lack of context! :smiley:
