Hello, sorry it's not very clear in the title, but I will try to explain it better here.

I sometimes use fdupes on big HDD, and it takes times to do the scan and delete interactively the duplicates files. I thought it could be useful to use the normal command fdupes -r ./hdd/ > output.txt and maybe later having a way to parse my output.txt and delete the files interactively.

I can do something in bash maybe, but I think it could be useful in fdupes directly.

Have a good day.
