Usage

$ organize-rt --help
orginize-rt 0.9.0

FLAGS:
    -h, --help         Prints help information
    -H, --hidden       Include hidden files/directories
    -q, --quiet        Quiet run, empty output

Writing own rules

Just edit ~/.config/organize-rt/rules.toml. File structure:

rules = [
#...
    [
    'REGEX',
    'OUTPUT_SUBDIR',
]
#...
]

With this rule, file, that match REGEX rule, but didn't match previous rules will move to OUTPUT_DIR/OUTPUT_SUBDIR, where OUTPUT_DIR is --output option.
