Produce a script which will run on the Windows (XP and others) platform to move files from a range of sub directories to the parent directory and then rename the the sub directory to PROCESSED_originalname.  

Note, at anytime, there may be multiple directories to process at the same level (but only one level deep).

All directories with the word PROCESSED at the start should be ignored next time around.

Parent Directory must be able to be specified via a config type file.

No output / reporting required.  This job will form part of a number of jobs running in a batch file executed as a windows service (per x minutes).


By way of example:

C:\test\1234
contains a.txt and b.txt

Post script execution.

c:\test\ should not have the following contents:
a.txt
b.txt
directory PROCESSED_1234 (which contains original a.txt and b.txt)

PRETTY SIMPLE.
