+Move (or copy) multimedia files to a defined path
+
+Mvfotos copies multimedia files, such as fotos, movies and sounds to a
+specific preconfigured path. Use /etc/mvfotos.conf or ~/.mvfotos to
+configure the details. Call mvfotos -h for help on the parameters.
+
+It sorts the files according to year and season. This information is
+either taken from EXIF (JPEG) or from the file's original creation
+date. if necessary, JPEG files are losslessly rotated automatically if the
+respective EXIF flag is set.
+
+On my system, all multimedia files from foto and video cameras or
+music recorders are stored in /var/data/family and then in
+subdirectories according to the file type. See my configuration in
+/etc/mvfotos.conf and overwrite that according to your needs.
+
+Then simply plugin a camera, open the files in a foldeer and call on
+the command line, e.g.:
+
+mvfotos -p birthday-party /media/camera/DCIM/file1.jpg \
+                          /media/camera/DCIM/file2.jpg \
+                          /media/camera/DCIM/file3.jpg \
+                          /media/camera/DCIM/file4.jpg
+
+To achieve this, I type "mvfotos -p birthday-party", select the files,
+then drag and drop the selected files to the console.
