Command Line Tool and Tidycode Pl Sql Formatter Software for Windows

Swiss File Knife
$0 - Vincent Stahl

SFK makes daily tasks easy. Find and extract text in binary files, list dir tree sizes, filter and replace text, run an instant ftp server, find duplicate files, join many text files into one, create and verify md5 checksum lists, run a command on all files, detab text, create hexdumps from files, trace contents of a tcp connection, find dependencies between files, print colored text to terminal, locate commands in path, print last lines of a file, hex to binary, binary to source code, convert CR/LF, split and join large files. Example: how do you transfer files from one PC to another? type "sfk ftpserv", and you have an ftp server running within one second. The same with all other functions: "sfk find" finds text within files - without long and boring index creation. "sfk run" runs your self-defined command on all files, but you get a preview of what would be done before the stuff is really executed. Detailed help and easy syntax: whereever possible, there is a descriptive help text, understandable error message, suggestion for improvement. Options are written in plain english - it's no longer "ls -lRxtz -bnf" chinese, but "sfk list -time -size -since today", commands that you can actually remember. No installation: if you are working on many different machines (bussiness and private PC, notebooks, VMWare machines, helping someone under Windows and Linux) then forget about installing tools over and over. No installation, registry modifications, DLL dependencies - SFK simply runs instantly, anywhere.

Movica
$0 - Rajat Bhargav

Editing AVI files is easily done through VirtualDub but for .wmv and .mpg files the tools are less easily available. Two very good command line tools are available for editing these files viz.

AsfBin - Very well done editor for Windows media files
MpgTx - A tool being developed largely for POSIX apps.
FLVtool - Metadata updater and flv movie editor

All these applications are freely available for download for non-commercial use.

Movica is a graphical user interface that uses these fine programs to edit movie files. A great deal of emphasis has been placed on keyboard shortcuts to make the job of editing easier. In addition if you have RealProducer 11 Basic, you can edit .rm movies using Movica as well.

Briefly what you can do is -

- Select or delete multiple portions from a video file.
- Copy, paste and fine tune the selections.
- Join multiple files together
- Split movies into smaller ones
- Keep editlists that let you play selected parts of the movie without editing

Though initially meant for video files, support for audio files has been added. You can edit, join and split .wma and .mp3 files.
