Default Python tool for deleting redundant .wav-files

Hey,
When switching PC's and copying projects, a tool like this came to mind. After a while a primitive version was done and I was able to delete > 10GB of useless files from old projects.

How it works:
- Checks for a .rpp file in a folder
- If found, reads the project file
- For each .wav file in the folder and subfolders, checks if it's included in the project (freeze sources are included)
- Moves redundant files to "ReaCleanup"-folder to wait for deletion

Would this be of any use to more people? I could share the (very brief) source code or even an .exe format after some improvements, if this kind of program is needed.

Cheers,
Felix
