Don't deprecate your work. I use more or less daily a .dat file to copy .dll files after compiling my programs in VB.Net 2003. I'm proud that I could make the file because it avoids a lot of manual copy file work and frustrations when I forgot copying the files before start testing my changes.
Kind regards,
Dirk

ActiveState Perl is what I use for that sort of thing. At least a perl script can do more stuff.
If it gets long enough move it to php or java.
If it still doesn't perform, c++.
But use whatever language ya know that'll work.
The language is less important than having something that's DONE.

Nothing wrong or embarrassing about it, as long as it's the right hammer for the right nail.

If Kanye West and Kim Kardashian were both drowning and you only had time to save one, what kind of sandwich would you make?
I just wish the elephanting wind and rain would stop, I haven't known such a persistent period of bad weather to batter these shores for such a long time. At least we aren't getting it as bad as some places. Well, we maybe are, but we are used to it 
I really just wish it would get a few Deg C colder so that the rain will turn to snow like it should be!
Oh, and for those back to work today, nae luck, at least it will nearly be time to go home. My kiddiewinkles go back to school tomorrow and the wife goes back to work. I might make an appearance in the office this week, but more likely go back on Monday, then offshore to my new platform on the Wednesday.
In the meantime, I am battling with 3 wii remotes that aren't working, they left them so long the batteries leaked inside. So with new batteries in, they only partially work. Strip down and clean up will hopefully do the trick, but they use some stupid screw head, so opening them might be a challenge!

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

You need a dictionary.
I leave the exercise as to why one is needed to the class.
Homework by Friday please and permission slips for the school outing to Helga's House of Pain need to be handed in to Mr Vilmos before the 23rd of February.

After you have removed the dictionary from your @rse is that it fixed?

I cannot possibly fit a dictionary up my @rse there is a thesaurus up there already.
BTW
I saw a blue plaque attached to a house in Soho.
It said "This is the house in which Peter Mark Roget Lived (Dwelt, Abided, Inhabited)"
Nice to see someone with a good sense of humour!

For years I have used the saying "Wonderful thing a dictionary, if you know how to spell."

My solution to said condition is the Dremel Moto Tool. A cutting disk on the tool cuts a nice screw-driver friendly slot in the top of pretty much anything.

I did see them on Ebay, I have found that a flat blade of the correct width will happily sit into two of the wings and works ok.
I'll still maybe order one up just in case!

Same with any security screw - they are pretty easy to "bodge" out, but a PITA to get back in!

It has rained here, off and on for days the wind has been howling.
I woke up this morning and it was 61 and rain, now (noon) it clear and 46F and supposed to drop into single digit, with wind chill by morning and be cold all week. The people here say they haven't seen this for 10-11 years.

Those who regularly listen to The News Quiz on The Home Service will be aware of Mr Hoggart.
Sadly he died yesterday.
A very funny man, he will be missed, and 67 is far too young.

For Hoggart, agreed.
Yet, for some, 67 is far too old.
