Version 1.5

The installer has been built to be compatible with Windows 10.

The names of the 2 folders that the installer creates have been changed from “SR” to “Binary Filters”.

Binary Filters

The name of the icon has been changed from “SR.ico” to “Binary Filters.ico”.

The fatal error messages have been normalized to use the same format.  Non-fatal errors never issue error messages.  Both are accessible from the %ERRORLEVEL%.  Non-fatal errors have values below 256, while fatal errors have values above 256.

New feature: Binary Filters Demo

“Binary Filters Demo.bat” has been added to the installation.  To see its demonstration:

  1. Open a COMMAND or CMD window
  2. Optionally use the CD command to set your working folder
  3. Type “Binary Filters Demo” (include the quotes)
  4. Press ENTER

This process will take several minutes, depending upon how many files you have on your main drive.  Then it will open its report in another window.

First, this report lists duplicates in your PATH, which  are undesirable.

Second, this report lists programs that are not in your PATH.  It does not mean that these programs of yours are inaccessible, because your computer might have shortcuts to them.  They just are not easily accessible within a CMD or COMMAND window.

This program demonstrates many ways that you can use the Binary Filters software suite to stream process data with advanced batch programming (scripting), redirection and piping.   It even creates a second batch program and executes it.
