Subject: createing directories and moving files into it

I have an undetermined list of directories.

I am trying to loop through them all and in each one I want to make a
directory called 'images'. when i do this, I want o move all the imagges
in that folder into it.

so i have a tree like this:

some-dir
\_abc
 - img00971273.jpg
 - img21234235.jpg
 - img12345623.jpg
\_123
 - img99554361.jpg
 - img21234235.jpg
 - img53840534.jpg
\_xyz
 - img00930443.jpg
 - img12364235.jpg
 - img09982623.jpg
\_890
 - img00923871.jpg
 - img21292835.jpg
 - img08836823.jpg

I would like to create


some-dir
\_abc
 \__images
   - img00971273.jpg
   - img21234235.jpg
   - img12345623.jpg

And so on and so forth.

Hope this illustration makes sense. I have tried to create a loop and go
through each directory and use system() to 'mkdir images' and mv *.jpg
/images

no luck as yet. really starting to like some of Ruby's fileutils. just
wish i could get moving with some of these tasks :)

All help greatly appreciated. I'll buy you a beer at lunch.
