Good job. I think i will use this. But I will modify the final filename to include, hour:minute:seconds, since i seldom hit the target on my first scrot so to speak.

I have been thinking about doing something similar for my dotfiles, but in one way the opposite:

* Moving selected file (f.i. ~/.bashrc) to an all folder (in my case a dropboxfolder), and rename the file.
* Then symlink it back to it's original location, with original name.
* And put symlinks in "tag folders".

With this it will be really easy to browse the files with dmenu or similar. I always have a backup on dropbox, and i think i will upload the tagfolders to github. I will select files, with a script that gets the filename of the open file in Sublime Text, and ask for actions with dmenu.
