Append File Name to Text File Sat Jun 14, 2014 3:05 am • by stodge
Hi,

I'm using hazel to monitor a folder and when a new file is seen it is copied to a specific Dropbox folder. This works great and I'm really happy. What I'd like to also do is to have the filename of moved file appended to a text file in Dropbox so that I can track which files have been moved. I think this will be a shell script but I have no clue on how to do this.

Can anyone bail me out?

Thanks
stodge

Yes, you would need a script for that. Keep in mind, though, that Hazel does log all this stuff (click "View Log" in the "Info" section) and it also sends notifications.
