Concept and features

wisort is a file sorting cli. It has different characters:

• apprentice
• magician
• witch
• dragon (coming soon)

These are different magical users so they clean your file system differently. The apprentice is unsure about his work so he leave the most things to you to manually handle (confirmations when deleting etc.). The magician works way more autonomously but is very calm and doesn't destroy anything. This means a lot of capabilties with a good amount of safety. The witch is a brazen sorcerer not afraid of destruction. She cleans your filesystem very very thoroughly.

(As of now magician and witch are not implemented)

The :sparkles: magic :sparkles:

• smart unzip: archives can be automatically unpacked before being moved. they get moved into a new folder or directly to the destination depending on the content
• file duplicate removal strategies
  • replace the (older) duplicate by symlink
  • matching exact contents
  • diffing contents
  • intentional duplicate recognition -> diffing file names
• auto-remove empty files
• automatic move conflict resolution when the programm wants to move a file somewhere where a file with the same name already exist it can handle that automatically
