    Earlier someone asked about windiff for pictures. Is there a tool that would scan a directory and look for similar file names... useful for getting rid of duplicate files.

    This demographic will quite happily click on shiny things however:laugh:

    Found on Bash.org [erno] hm. I've lost a machine.. literally _lost_. it responds to ping, it works completely, I just can't figure out where in my apartment it is.

Looking for similar filenames is kinda problematic. English is a complex language :) http://shazware.com[^] click on shazdocs then UnDup... I charge $4 for it (with my other utils), but codeproject-ites can have it for free... (so people don't think i'm spammin) I'm to the point where money would be nice, but ANY feedback would be fine... ...Steve

        Some month ago I built this into cPicture. Folder diff, duplicates and similiars. I also needed a picture check, which loads and decodes all pictures in memory to check if they are OK. Feel free to use it. Jürgen Eidt http://cpicture.de/en [^]
