A slight variation; I prefer to have each run's debug files together in a single directory. Thus each day, if there are any debug files from a recent run, I make a subdirectory "DBG-MMDD". The files are moved into the subdirectory. The script then checks how many "DBG-*" directories there are and retains only the N most recent. -- Jon H.
