A simple Python GUI application to organize files in a directory based on their extensions. You can ignore specific files, exclude selected files, and choose to either move or copy the files into corresponding folders.
- Browse and select a directory to organize.
- Ignore files by specifying their names.
- Exclude files by selecting them from the displayed list.
- Organize files by moving or copying them into folders based on their extensions.
- Graceful handling of interrupts (e.g., Ctrl+C).
