Jay D. Novak has released some open source command line filters and utilities. They should be quite useful for directory processing, sorting, or working with files. Here is the description:
Quote:
The original version of Windows contained only three filters - FIND, SORT and MORE. Despite all the improvements made in the past twenty years, Windows has not added any more. That's sad because the GUI (graphical user interface) may look nice, but when it comes to serious work, GUI just can't compare to the CMD window. Using Windows commands through the CMD window is the best way I know to access the full power of the operating system. I use the abbreviation XXP (Extra XP Commands) to stand for JDN XP Toolkit. It contains almost 100 extra XP commands and filters.

Over the years, I have built up a collection of tools which I use when working with Windows. They include some useful commands and filters like FIND, SORT and MORE and are used in a CMD window or a DOS window. They enable me to perform file manipulations quickly and easily. They perform the kinds of file manipulations that usually require either writing a program from scratch or finding one written by someone else. JDN XP Toolkit contains almost 100 new commands and filters. So instead of hunting for these tools as the need arises, you can download them all at once and keep them on hand for when the need arises.

Filters are a special kind of Windows command. They are special because unlike ordinary commands, they can be combined with other filters and commands. This makes them the most convenient and most versatile of all the Windows commands. This XP Toolkit contains almost 100 new commands, almost all of which are filters and all of which are open source freeware.

Command line junkies rejoice! Thanks Chris, it probably would've taken me a looong time to stumble across this one on my own. I bet I've got a lot of these from using 4NT, but I'm sure there's still plenty of good stuff in there.
