I have a folder called X which inside has many folders and sub-folders. I want to search in all of the folders inside X and find a specific document type. For example xlsx and transform each file into an xls file. In this case I need to use the libreoffice convert option like libreoffice --headless --convert-to xls
but here is the catch. After conversion each converted file should be in the same folder as the original xlsx file.
Example:
X/
Folder 1/
Folder 2/
Folder 2.1/file.xlsx
Folder 3/
Folder 4/
Folder 4.1/anotherFile.xlsx
After conversion:
X/
Folder 1/
Folder 2/
Folder 2.1/file.xls
Folder 2.1/file.xlsx
Folder 3/
Folder 4/
Folder 4.1/anotherFile.xls
Folder 4.1/anotherFile.xlsx
The new xls* in this case, will be converted on the same folder as the original xlsx. This will be done inside all sub-folders and to all xlsx that are found.
