It is pretty much what shell scripting was invented for. Shell scripts are ideal for moving files around.

Recently I realised I was missing this functionality over on my Mac, and so I decided to redress the imbalance through a little scripting. I have written about a very similar XYplorer script in the past that works in the same way, but rather than the last download, it grabs a copy of the last screenshot I took. One of my most used extensions is one which will move the last downloaded file to the directory in the currently focused XYplorer pane. In my day job, I work on Windows, and XYplorer is my file manager of choice due to it’s configurability and extensibility through scripting.

Move Last Download to Current Finder Folder
