Here's a pointless application I made that lets you select a website to visit:

YES! I beat Prog1!!! My program worked! I just had to make a greasemonkey script to output the scrambled words into a commanline-friendly format.

[manonst]

My prog1 solution in 45 lines of batch. I originally did it in perl, but decided to do it in batch just to see if i could. Simply put wordlist.txt in the current directory and scrambled.txt should contain a list of the scambled words, one on each line. The first time you run it, it will generate two files. wordlist_numbered.txt will be a copy of the wordlist with each line numbered. wordlist_sorted.txt will also be created which will be the wordlist where each word is alphabetically sorted. This will take a while to run. The next time you run it, it should spit out the answer in 2-3 seconds.

Try and beat my batch kung-fu!


edit: Impressive, but no spoilers, please.

[anonHacker]

Nasty stuff manonst, but I'm afraid I have you beat with my 22 lines of batch. I included it in my PM, in case the urge to see the hellish innards of my batches seized you. (Actually, this one's relatively easy to follow.)

Amusingly, you use so much structured batch that for a moment I was expecting to see semi-colons. Truth be told, I generally dislike structured batch because it's usually a sign of someone applying Good Habits to The Wrong Language, but your code is actually sensible, so cheers.

Also, SAVED and you just posted an answer to Programming 1 which anyone who hasn't finished can now execute to get free points. Might want to edit that post.

Oh hey, mutants_r_us_guild, could you PM me your code? I'm curious about what you scripted. As promised, I'm sending you my code.

EDIT: mutants_r_us_guild, Evidently you included a RAR'd link a few pages back, care to edit that out for heretofore alluded reasons? Your code is quite the beast, tbh. Props on solving it with prime numbers. I never thought of doing that.

[mutants_r_us_guild]

I'll PM the files to you either tonight or tomorrow. The only finished copy is on my laptop and Im installing Windows updates right now. (upgrading to sp3 instead of sp1 so i can use my new webcam ). As soon as I can.. Ill rar up the new bat files and xpi file and upload. The xpi file is a FF extension I made to make the prog1 page display the words in a way that works with my app. (that took some serious JS&DOM skillz lol not really..it was way easier than making the anagram solver )

Hi again everyone. I'm working on a new game. This one has pretty pictures. Any suggestions on the code so far?
PS: IT'S NOT DONE YET!!

hahahah, i'll make a messenger program soon, i did it last year.
i'm going to have to freshen up on batch commands.

[nosidius]

the wipe out harddrive one, i have several copies of it, and it's useful if you want to keep somen at school and make it so you can delete when u need too............ i found a list of CMD commands, PM me if you want them

my most impressive batch- about 6 lines, but gives me a pass worded admin account on any windows computer (muwahahahahhaha die school teacher files!)

o yes, and i make a lot of others................ and don't let me know ur i.p. address.............. i can (won't unless u REALLY piss me off) shut down ur computer.............

[mutants_r_us_guild]

@above post


ummm... how do you think you can shut down a computer... you mean the ping of death? Im sorry to tell you.. but they patched that in later releases of Win95.

However I am curious about the one that gives you admin access on any computer.. how is this done? Is it that AT exploit?

[anonHacker]

He means using the "shutdown" command set for remote computers.

"Total control" is attained with this command: net use \\Target-IP-or-hostname\IPC$ "" /user:Administrator

Thank Microsoft for making the Safe-Mode-only Administrator account with its default null password perfectly valid for remote logins. Also, pro edition is extra accommodating to remote logins.
