Jan 5, 2016 at 18:21 comment added gardenhead I'm glad I could help. Yes this moves the duplicates as well, mv doesn't know anything about file contents, only file names. If you want to find duplicates, I don't believe there are any built-in commands for this --- you would have to download a tool like ImageMagick for that.
Jan 5, 2016 at 12:49 comment added Smokeyone Thank you very much for your help - I have been reading up on command lines but find it hard going - however will keep at it - following your very clear instructions - success - all the images are now in one folder - duplicates as well I assume - so gthumb or another programme could find the duplicates - of course I can guess another command line would find the duplicates much easier -
