Especially for external hard drives serving as backup of all the personal data, sortig them is an endless job. -This program helps you sorting your files. First of all, the **files are copied to own folders for each file type**. Second, **jpegs are distinguished by the year** when they have been taken **and by the event**. We thereby define an event as a time span during them photos are taken. It has a delta of 4 days without a photo to another event. +This program helps you sorting your files.

If a file already exists in the destination directory, it is skipped. Hence you can interrupt the process with Ctrl+C and continue afterwards. ## Adjust event distance -For the case you want to reduce or increase the timespan between events, simply adjust the variable ```minEventDelta```.
