Moving files from one subdirectory to another

问题

I tried moving files from one directory to another and didn't work. so I searched and found an answer that fits what I want. When I run it, modified to my directory, it gives

What is want to do:

${filename,,*}: bad substitution!

This is what I used:

for filename in *; do
  case "${filename,,*}" in
    b01.nii*)    mv "$filename" "$/Users/dave/Desktop/test/untitled_folder_*/str" ;;
    vol_01.nii*) mv "$filename" "$/Users/dave/Desktop/test/untitled_folder_*/rs" ;;
    *)           echo "don't know where to put $filename";;
  esac
done

Thank you

回答1:

you two errors:

the main problem is the for command, the variable $filename contains * and not the real file name. you should usefor filename in $(find . -name "*");do

the second one is the case:

you have to be sure about $filename variable's value i.e. in my bash shell the filename output is

./b01.nii 
./vol_01.nii

it's better to use the following syntax in the case ./b01.nii* )

I've replaced your mv with echo just to test the script:

for filename in $(find . -name "*"); do

  case ${filename} in
    ./b01.nii* )    
                echo "$filename ${filename}/Users/dave/Desktop/test/untitled_folder_*/str" ;;
    ./vol_01.nii* ) 
                echo "$filename ${filename}/Users/dave/Desktop/test/untitled_folder_*/rs" ;;
    *)          
                echo "don't know where to put $filename";;
  esac
done

my output is
