While this app does many things I find Advanced Renamer is more than enough for my needs and much easier to use and learn, I'm just sayin.

I've been using this frequently as a replacement for the original Universal Extractor and it's so far saved me a lot of time and energy.

The download found on the github site is currently missing an .exe (or any other executable) file.

thepiney on 2020-02-04 14:27

I'm guessing you downloaded the source code zip file. If you click on the download link and go to the bottom of RC2 area, just above 2.0.0 RC1 you'll see "Assets", click on that and then the top download "UniExtractRC2.zip".

TXTcollector v2.0.2 Private

  • 140KB (uncompressed)
  • Released on 27 May 2011
  • Suggested by kwhipp

TXTcollector grabs all .txt files from a directory of your choice and combines them into a new (larger) text file. This can come in handy: I use TXTcollector myself to grab a CD full of readme's to enable me to read them all in one go. At work I use it to combine daily and weekly reports and to combine server backup logs. Some users find this application perfect for combining their network log files.

HFS v2.3m

  • 2MB (uncompressed)
  • Released on 18 Aug 2018

HFS (HTTP File Server) is a great tool for sharing files on any device with a web browser. Just setup the program, add files and folders via drag and drop, and connect to the web address. The web view is an easy-to-navigate page that provides search, a variety of view options, and even the capability to download files and folders in a single archive (TAR format).

Other features include user controls, uploading, speed limits, transfer logs, "expert" view, and IP bans. Note that to make the program available over the internet, a dynamic DNS-type service may be necessary.

Functional in Linux under WINE.
