I'm going to use zsh, z shell, because that's the default now in Catalina. This will probably work in either zsh or bash. So in this I'm going to set the shell script to Pass input as arguments. It's very important to change that because otherwise the default is standard in. So then you have a for loop that can loop through the arguments which are represented by the dollar sign and the at symbol there. It's going to loop through everything that's into it. It's going to do, it's going to loop, and then it's going do exactly what we just did in Terminal. But it's going to set that to a variable. It's important not to have spaces around the equals there. We're also going to get the path to file and the file name itself.You do that by doing file name is $f, that the f from here looping through all of the files that has passed in. Then you do colon t and then file path is colon h. Then we're going to do a simple mv command which is move. You can use the move command to also rename files. All rename is is moving a file from one place to another with a new name, right. So we'll do the filepath slash and then in curly brackets we'll put the two different names. The first one is the original name and the second one is the new name. #Automator mac move files to new dated folder how to#.
