@edwardtorvalds I assume abcdg.tar.bz goes in to a folder named bz?

@edwardtorvalds it's the path where you want the sorted files to go to. Use it if you use the first approach (find with -exec). If you want the files to go in the same directory where you ran find, remove it and use the second approach (find, followed by xargs).
