I am looking for suggestions to get my files in order on my hard-drive. Right now I have the files in two locations. Performed scott@home/dir1 $ ls -R > dir1.txt and cott@home/dir2 $ ls -R > dir2.txt. I am using diff to sort out what is happening. Also, Nautilus search feature.
So, right now. I am :
1. reviewing diff output to find something out of place.
2. searching for the files in Nautilus
3. reviewing results
4. removing extra's/ renaming files/looking at things

Things that complicate the solution. one of the directories is a SMB share on a windows box. I think I have both a mounted folder and a Nautilus mount. I actually didn't realize there was a difference.

I have seen command line solutions that also add an MD5 hash into the mix. I don't know if I need that level of detail.
