DateSet  
Description: DateSet is a utility for retrieving the system date or time and using it from within your DOS shell or a BAT file. This is great for things like renaming log files with the current date or time, or for creating datestamp files to indicate that a process has run successfully. Easy to use, you just install the EXE, then call it and the BAT file it creates to set the environment variables for later use anywhere in your script or at the command-line. Easy docs are in the readme.txt file.

  Recurse  
Description: Recurse fills yet another gap in DOS - the ability to recursively process the contents of a text file by way of a batch process (BAT). For example let's say you get a list of usernames, and for every name you want to disable their accounts after they have left the company. You could do it manually, one at a time, either from the GUI or command-line. That might even be a good idea if there are only 5 or 10 of them. But what if you have 100? 1000? Even with normal command-line tools you could have trouble. With Recurse what was difficult or impossible becomes easy. Simply create the BAT file you'd like to use and write it in such a way that it accepts arguments from the command-line. Then create (or export from whatever source you got the list from - email, spreadsheet) your TXT file with your list of items to be processed and run recurse. Full instructions and an example are included in the readme.txt file.

  Count  
Description: Count is a utility to help you perform math functions within a BAT script. If you've ever lamented the fact that DOS BAT files can't perform the simplest math operations such as incrementing a value each time through a procedure Count is for you! Count can perform all standard math functions - addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Count can work with integers (whole numbers like "4" or "-9") or can work with floating point numbers (numbers containing a decimal place like "4.32" or "123.65").

  ProcessByDate 
Description: ProcessByDate is a utility to help you process files based on last access date. Say you want to move all files older than 15 days from a directory with a script. With normal DOS this is not easily done (if possible at all). With ProcessByDate you can move the files that match the age you specify quickly and easily. Self-documenting as all my apps are, additional information on usage is also in the readme.txt file included.

  Palm (or Windows/MP3 player) Random MP3 Loader  
Description: PowerUsers.info is happy to announce the availability of a 1.0 version of the new Palm Random MP3 Loader. For all of you Palm (or Windows) PDA users who wish you had an easy way to choose and load MP3s to your MP3-capable PDAs this may be your answer. I found that after the first time of searching manually through a few thousand MP3s for the 35-40 I wanted and could fit on my 256 MB SD card, I avoided the exercise again, even when I was growing quite tired of the songs I had installed. And because of the hassle involved I kept putting off erasing the ones I had and putting new ones in place. So this app was born out of my desire to make this task easier for myself. If you have an MP3-playing Palm or any other MP3 player or PDA that uses an SD (or other) media card that can be accessed with a card reader, try the app out.

  RDelete XP  
Description: RDelete (Recursive Delete) allows you to remove files based on a specific filename or a wildcard. For instance you can delete all TMP files by running:

rdelete c:\ *.tmp

which would remove all *.TMP files from the root of C: on down. If you wanted to remove files from only a certain branch or section of the hard drive you can specify that behavior like this:

rdelete c:\windows *.tmp

This invocation would remove *.TMP files again, but ONLY from C:\WINDOWS and any directories it contains. RDelete can be used from command-line or from within BAT files. This version of RDelete is for Windows NT, 2K and XP only.
