Hi, I am a Hazel noob, just had a question to see if it was possible:

I would like to be able to save a file to the desktop and then depending on the name of the file Hazel will file it in a specific folder for me.

eg. Save a file called # clientA logo.png

Could hazel rename the file to clientA logo.png and then put it in a folder called clientA in my hard drive?

I used a hash at the start of the file name so it doesn't do it to all the files.

Its essentially kind of like a command line when saving files so I can just type the folder name where I want the file to go instead of having to look for it manually.

Sorry, this sounds really complicated when I read it back.

Search the help for "match patterns". You can set up a pattern to match filenames with a hash at the front and capture the rest of the name into a custom token which you can then use in a Sort into Subfolder pattern.
