Here's something that may prove helpful.  This script was very quick and
very dirty, but since it's been working beautifully for my application I
hadn't gone back to it in a long time.

I took a look, and I made some bad assumptions when I wrote the script.
I'm expecting one directory in "$path", not just a file name.  You'll want
to edit this part of the code:

    (@path) = split(/\//,$path);
    unless (-d "$archive_dir/$path[0]") {
        system("mkdir $archive_dir/$path[0]");
    }

    unless (-f "$archive_dir/$path") {
        system("touch $archive_dir/$path");
    }
                                                

to be:

    (@path) = split(/\//,$path);
    if (@path > 1) {
	unless (-d "$archive_dir/$path[0]") {
            system("mkdir $archive_dir/$path[0]");
        }
    }

    unless (-f "$archive_dir/$path") {
        system("touch $archive_dir/$path");
    }

or remove that first "unless..." section altogether.
