#!/usr/bin/python """ ==================================================================== Utility: delete all PyPhoto 2.0 "thumbs" thumbnail subfolders in an entire folder tree, in preparation for building newer 2.1 "_PyPhoto-thumbs.pkl" files on next folder opens. Run this on your PyPhoto folders after upgrading to its 2.1 PyGadgets release. Example use (Python 3.X or 2.X): /MY-STUFF/Code$ python3 delete-pyphoto2.0-thumbs-folders.py Root of folder tree to scan (Enter=".")? /MY-STUFF/Camera Delete "/MY-STUFF/Camera/MERGED/PHOTOS/2006/thumbs" (y=yes)? n not deleted Delete "/MY-STUFF/Camera/MERGED/PHOTOS/2007/thumbs" (y=yes)? y Delete "/MY-STUFF/Camera/MERGED/PHOTOS/2008/thumbs" (y=yes)? n not deleted Bye This script is a frozen executable run directly in PyGadgets app and executable packages (on Macs, see PyGadgets.app/Contents/MacOS; on Windows you can run by clicking too): .../PyGadgets.app/Contents/MacOS$ ./delete-pyphoto2.0-thumbs-folders Older 2.0 subfolders are not deleted automatically, because their name is generic and may be used by other software (a former issue). *Caution* - not all "thumbs/" are necessarily PyPhoto 2.0 folders, so be careful to inspect the folders in each verify input prompt. The learning-python.com/thumbspage program, for example, uses the same name for the folder it generates and retains (unfortunately!). ==================================================================== """ from __future__ import print_function import sys, os, shutil if sys.version[0] == '2': input = raw_input try: root = input('Root of folder tree to scan (Enter=".")?
