Ask HN: Language Recommendations for a Manga Organizing Program?

I think Consistent Ordering Blocktransfer Ontology Language would be a perfect fit for this task. COBOL was designed with transferring data that has a strong ordering, like book chapters, while tracking its Ontological state like read or unread as its primary focus.
All joking aside pushing data around a HD with little to no calculation sounds like the job of a scripting language. Go for which ever you prefer. If you are on an Apple you might try their automator program it is a visual scripting tool that is good at doing little file transforms like that.

As much as I hate to admit it, I learned two languages on punch cards - Fortran and Cobol. I'm sure there is a Cobol implementation for Windows out there somewhere, but is there actually an open source one? It might almost be fun to do it just to see how much I remember...
Looks like a great viewer, but the library function looks like it requires me to import everything I have, and then import new stuff as it comes along. That might be slightly faster long term, but short term looks like a major issue. Unless I'm missing something?
I know I "could" do this in C++ or Python (or any number of other languages), but it's been a while since I've done any file manipulation programming. So wondering if there's anything out there that would be more "ideal" for writing such a program?
