CL-Tools 4Win is a free suite of user interfaces that offers various command line utilities typically available exclusively in DOS Mode. It includes four commonly used tools and is accessible to anyone who needs them.
CL-Tools 4Win is a comprehensive suite of user interfaces designed to offer several command line utilities, which were previously only available in DOS Mode. The suite includes GUI's for Microsoft's CDImage, Cabarc, MakeCab, and UPX, offered by Markus F.X.J. Oberhumer, Lszl Molnr, John F. Reiser, QuickeneR's Innounp, Veit Kannegieser's E_WISE_W and Camtech's Setup Extractor.
The CDImage 4Win tool enables you to generate an ISO CD/DVD image from the contents of a folder on the hard drive. It offers various options that can control various ISO image's properties such as volume label, time stamp, optimize storage, boot sector file and much more. This tool enables you to create a CD with multiple software versions, which will only write the same files once, thus appearing in multiple directories while saving a substantial amount of space. It will also create bootable images of Operating Systems Windows 98, Millennium, NT, Windows 2000, Media Center Edition, XP, Windows 2003, Vista, and Windows 7, applying the Boot Sector files and Volume label (Boot files included).
Cabarc 4Win is a utility that creates and extracts cabinet files. The cabinet format provides an efficient way to package multiple files together. The key features of the cabinet format are that multiple files may be stored in a single cabinet ("CAB file"); and that data compression is performed across file boundaries, making it suitable for compressing larger files.
MakeCab 4Win is a data compression tool that can compress or extract Windows Setup Cab files such as .dl_, .ex_, .sy_, .bm_, .oc_, .gi_, .wa_, .mi_, etc. Although originally designed for use by setup programs, it can be used in almost any situation where a lossless data compression tool is required.
UPX 4Win is a portable, extendable, high-performance executable packer for several different executable formats. It offers several compression options, which can compress an executable file down to around half its original size while maintaining full functionality.
In conclusion, CL-Tools 4Win is an excellent tool for developers and users alike. The suite of tools is easy to use and offers a comprehensive set of GUIs for several command line utilities. The Windows-based interface makes it easy for users to navigate through different tools, and each tool offers a range of features that can help optimize and compress files. Overall, CL-Tools 4Win is a must-have for anyone looking for an all-in-one suite of command line tools.
