Hello you all brilliant programmers

I would like a script which would select all the files in the current pane and move them one folder up

thanks for your help !

Moves all files and folders from the current directory one level up.
If you want to move only files (and no folders).

There is the option to right-click > Move up if you prefer that over script.

Hi there, What would you use to move only folders? Cheers.

Of course, Invert Selection! Thanks!

Sorry for being late to thank you all for your help !

I see this is an old thread. But maybe someone could help me add to this script the ability to then delete the empty folder leftover from moving all the files up?
Thanks!

Nice! Thanks!

Great script, thank you.

May I ask, how would you only move selected files up and then delete the folder please.
Thank you

What does #1056; do?
Try it out!

and then you can answer that question yourself...

Thank you. Ok I see that you select and use #1056 to move them up, but the code you supplied doesn't do that. But then you changed it considerably from sel a; #1056; to: $path = <curpath>; $parent = regexreplace($path, "(.*(?=\\))(.*)", "$1"); sel a; #1056; goto $parent; delete 1, 0, $path;.

So I was lost as to how to do both but with only selected files.

Using sel a; #1056; doesn't require you to select any files and in fact, even when selected the selection is ignored and all files are moved.

EDIT: Alright I see that sel a; selects all files. So I need to remove that? Ok, smarty! That worked, Thanks.
