Well, it’s not exactly how I’d like it, but now all my old individual post archives are back and will redirect you to the WP version.

I had generated them with the /shaky URL in mind, but then I changed my mind. I’d filled the /blog dir with WP files, so I didn’t want to regenerate them. So, a bit of sed:

for file in */*/*/*.html
do
sed -e 's/www\.shakykaiser\.com\/shaky/www\.shakykaiser\.com/blog/g' < $file > $file.new
done


[Thanks to Mr. W for the sed help there]

Then I needed to strip the .new off. I couldn’t use basename without going into each directory, so:

for file in */*/*/*.new
do
mv $file $( echo $file | awk '{ print substr($0,0,(length-4))}')
done


Heh, that one was all mine.

So geeeeeeekery over I hope, and all old links from other people’s pages and Google should work. Just means I have to keep all those old files around which is a pain.

Anyway, that’ll do.
