hello community,
Say we have the following structure in our filesystem: 

dir1
dir2
dir3
dir4

[download]
dir stands for directory of course. In dir1, there is a file1.txt that has in it numbers, like below 
6576576
898798789
5645436549
76567576576
876876876876

[download]

Same goes for dir2. In dir2, there is a file2.txt, that has in it numbers, like below 

6576576
89879878963
56454365492
765675765763
8768768768765

[download]

And so on, with all the rest of the folders. What we need to do, is have a new file (like an index) out of all directories and files values, like below: 

dir1;6576576,898798789,5645436549,76567576576,876876876876
dir2;6576576,89879878963,56454365492,765675765763,8768768768765

[download]
And secondly, another index file, which will have the reverse info 
6576576;dir1,dir2

[download]

Any ideas on how would you approach this?
Best
