btobolaski / drafts.sh
Created October 9, 2012 18:04
A script to deal with Drafts' App folder in dropbox. I don't like how it uses a special folder in Dropbox. I wish that I could just set the folder to whatever I want. So what I do is check whether a file exists in my notes directory, if it does, it adds t
#!/bin/bash
DRAFTS_DIR=~/Dropbox/Apps/Drafts/*
NOTES_DIR=~/Dropbox/Notes
for file in $DRAFTS_DIR
do
FILENAME=$(basename "$file")
if [ "$FILENAME" != "Journal.txt" ]; then
if [ -f $NOTES_DIR/"$FILENAME" ]; then
echo "" >> $NOTES_DIR/"$FILENAME"

#!/bin/bash
# A modification of Marco Arment's script at
#
# https://gist.github.com/3783146

# It's intended to be run once a day as a cron job. The main
# differences between it and Marco's script are:
#
# 1. It checks two feeds instead of just one.
