FileDater Update

At the beginning of this year I launched a utility called FileDater that would scan a folder and copy or move files based on the dates in the file names. Today I announce version 2.0 that extends the original with a few new commands. All of these commands work on the current set of objects so if called after a FILTER will work on the filtered set.

ONLY
Example: ONLY 10
This will take every 10th file

SKIP
Example: SKIP 10
This will skip every 10th file so if you have 100 files to start you will end up with 90.

RESET
Undoes all filtering. This is useful if you want to move all the files on Sundays to one folder and Saturdays to another.

INVERT
This inverts the selection for if you have selected all your weekend files to move someone you can invert it and grab all weekday file.
