Sort files by tag #43

Closed archaik closed 5 years ago

archaik commented 6 years ago

Is there a way to list all files in a folder, separated by tag? For example:

tag Name1 Name2 Name3 tag Name1 Name2 Name3 Name4 tag Name1 Name2

i know that tag -tgf \* /Some/Folder will show files in the folder with any tag. i know that tag -tgf \*|grep '^ '|cut -c5-|sort -u will list all Finder tags

I would like to a combination of the two without having to call out each tag- ( tag -tgf 'tagname' /Some/Folder )

Is this possible, or maybe even with a small script?

Thanks very much

I don't anticipate adding any support for this.
