Nice job.
Very useful, for me at least...
Can you please explain how can we move a file instead of just copy it?
And another thing: Is it possible to include a specific folder inside the media at the options? (e.g. usbstick/files).

Thanks for the script.

Thanks for your feed back.

To move , you need to just replace the "cp" by "mv" in the code.

To get a special folder well , ill try to implement it in the up coming versions , there still lots of "TODO" left.

Thanks for the tip.
I think I will make a second script, change the cp to mv and rename it to "move-to-media".

Well I changed the "cp" to "mv", but it doesn't move the files neither copies them (also renamed the file to "movetomedia").
There are no errors. It just won't move the files.
