### Example

###### Classify by Date:

`classifier -dt`



### Example

###### Classify files of directory '/home/source' and put them in location '/home/dest':

`classifier -d /home/source -o /home/dest`



`Note: ` If -d (source directory) is given without -o (output) directory, this will classify the files of source directory Eg:


`classifier -d /home/source'`


This classifies the directory /home/source.



### View the CONFIG, how files will be sorted

`classifier -t`



### Edit the CONFIG, to set up manual settings for classification

`classifier -et`



### Reset the CONFIG file

`classifier -rst`

```
