rove script

rove is a bash script I wrote to make it easier to work with directory structures, such as websites. This script will traverse a directory structure and execute a command in each directory.

rove by Jeff Albro 

Usage:
        rove [-ce#fils#tvw] start-directory [command]

Options:
        -c      check command before executing (recommended)
        -e#     end level (level 0 is the start directory)
        -f      follow symbolic links
        -i      interactive (implies -c)
        -l      leaves only (execute in directories without subdirectories)
        -s#     start level (level 0 is the start directory)
        -t      top down (default is bottom up)
        -v      verbose
        -w      wood only (execute in directories with subdirectories)

Warning:
        Be sure to escape metacharacters such as $<>&|(); with a \ or by
        quoting to bypass intial shell evaluation, if desired.  Use -c
        for pre-confirmation.
