I have just a little over 10,000 digital images and store them by year, month, day and time. epinfo uses the EXIF data to rename the files and set the time stamps for the files. I have written some php programs to allow me to display the images thru a web browser. It uses a MySQL database to manage the images into categories. I also store a checksum of the picture in the database so I can check to see if the images have become damaged. I have a script that I wrote check the check sum in the database to the image. I do backups whenever I add new images to the hard drive. This is still a work in progress. If you can send me a little more data on your files and how you want to store the images, I could help you in you task.

A checksum-based management of duplicates will help with the files with identical contents, but not with files that differ even a bit. Perl program below -- a modified version of Randal Schwartz's version[0] -- uses md5(1) to identify duplicates (as in identical files), failing that, Image::Magick based on fuzz factor. When it finds duplicates, it asks to enter the item number from the file list to be deleted. [0] Article Finding similar images, http://www.stonehenge.com/merlyn/LinuxMag/col50.html To be able to run, it needs Image::Magick (graphics/ImageMagick port), Cache::FileCache (devel/p5-Cache-Cache), List::Util (lang/p5-Scalar-List-Utils), File::Copy File::Path. Mind that it, rather Image::Magick, may consume all of your memory and/or temporary fs if you run it on all the files at once. If you are good in Perl, you could modify the program to move the duplicates in a directory (instead of deleting), and possibly not to ask to take the particular action (if as you say you would have a boat load of duplicates).

Re: searching ports doesn work
I think you did what I did. and it does take a while. There's a much easier and faster way to do this if you're online. I wasn't at the time, so I had to build it manually. When you do the make search keyblah and there isn't a /usr/ports/INDEX5 it builds one. I ~think~ it basically looks at all packages finds out info about it, and then builds the index. However if you download it, it's faster. make fetchindex Do that in /usr/ports and it will download the INDEX5, put it in /usr/ports and now when you type make seach key=blah it will have that to search.

Re: Searching contents of files
Here is the classical way to do a recursive grep. For csh/tcsh, define the alias alias rgrep 'find . -type f -print | xargs egrep -i \!* /dev/null' For bash/zsh, define the shell function rgrep() { find . -type f -print | xargs egrep -i $1 /dev/null} There are several variations of these that will work. But these are both fast and portable, and should work on virtually any flavor of unix.
