that one crazy line

back in 2006 i wrote about a quick fix for a stupid problem. That problem was renaming a whole bunch of files that i downloaded because i did not like the naming convention the packer used. you can check it out here.

Now instead of writing something like that i just use powershell.

ls *.mp3 | ren -newname { $_.Name -replace "bad", "" }

that’s a real scripting language and one crazy line.


i was bored today

i was bored today so i rewrote the program hide (source is here. Hide hides another file in an alternate data stream. With the rewrite it now checks for NTFS first and preserves the original filetime. i’ve also uploaded a binary on neworder.
