Crate randselect

randselect

This crate provides a simple command line utility for randomly selecting N files from a directory and copying/moving them to a target directory.

randselect operates (inefficiently) by generating a random permutation of the files in a given directory, then moving/copying the first N files in the resulting permutation to a target directory.
