Hmm, Ok, it after wrapping it in parens the script is dieing at the move point. At that point it gave me an error stating the the file could not be found. hmm..

Problem fixed! - The regex was capturing the last directory + file name.. (nin/...) whoops, when I attempted to move it to that directory it did not exist :-)

Sorry about the brevity of the error description previously, but there was no "hang", nor error messages. The script ran, created the dirs, and stopped..

Thank you for the assistance Fastolife, you got me on the right track.. damned precedence ;-)
