* You could also use a small bash-script to do the work for you. Bash is a shell, native on Linux, also exists on Macs. Copy the following code into a new file, name it "convert.sh". Put it into the lowest directory, where all the xml-files are stored. | |||
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash" enclose="div">#!/bin/bash | |||
for file in *.xml | |||
do | |||
FILENAME=$( echo $file | sed s/.xml// ) | |||
DIR=$( echo "$FILENAME" | sed s/[A-Z0-9]\$// ) | |||
ONE=$( echo "$DIR" | sed s/[A-Z0-9]\$// | sed s/[A-Z0-9]\$// ) | |||
TWO=$( echo "$DIR" | sed s/[A-Z0-9]// | sed s/[A-Z0-9]\$// ) | |||
THREE=$( echo "$DIR" | sed s/[A-Z0-9]// | sed s/[A-Z0-9]// ) | |||
#echo "$file => $DIR => $ONE / $TWO / $THREE / $file" | |||
mkdir -pv "../Airports/$ONE/$TWO/$THREE" | |||
cp -v $file "../Airports/$ONE/$TWO/$THREE/$FILENAME.procedures.xml" | |||
done | |||
</syntaxhighlight> | |||
Now it's time to fire up a terminal and navigate to the files: | |||
<code>cd /path/to/LevelD/package</code> | |||
To make the script executable type: | |||
<code>chmod +x convert.sh</code> | |||
Now you're ready to run the script! | |||
<code>./convert.sh</code> | |||
When the script is done, you will find a new folder on your hard-disk: "/path/to/LevelD/Airports" which contains the files in our "I/C/A/ICAO.procedures.xml fashion". | |||
