I use this one-liner for moving photos nested a single folder deep
into the top-level folder:
find * -name "*.jpg" | awk  -F/ '{print "mv "$0,$1"-"$2}' | sh

I would like to expand this into an application that handles arbitrary
nesting and smart rename, so I figure that Python is the language that
I need. I have googled file handling in Python but I simply cannot get
something to replicate the current functionality of that lovely
one-liner. What fine manual should I be reading? I am not asking for
code, rather just a link to the right documentation.

Thanks.
