Hey guys, my problem is that I'm sort of a cyber hoarder.... I keep a LOT of crap in my internal hard drive XD and I think it's about time to clean out my mac.
My biggest problem is my Downloads folder, which holds tons of setups, .dmgs, programs, apps, you name it. I wanna move them over to my external, but leave behind a .txt of some sort with the names of the files, that way I can just check IF i have something instead of carrying my external everywhere.... Maybe it's too much to ask, but is there a quick and dirty way of doing this?
My first thought was to use terminal to get to my download folder and use a command akin to dirs on windows or iOS that would just give me a list of all the names, but that didn't work and I'm not very familiar with OSX commands (shame on me...)
