Introduction   These utilities are provided free, and without any guarantee that they will work (although I use most on a daily basis)! They are all Windows-based .EXE files, and most require Win2000 or later to run. If you want more information, or have any suggestions, please e-mail me.

Some useful utilities

Download Description
WebFtp WebFtp notes Provides a very fast and safe way of uploading files to a remote machine using FTP. Typically used to keep a Web site uptodate. Primed with the correct information, it will automatically keep upto three different web locations (development, demo and live) in synch with local files. Works 10x faster than DreamWeaver's upload utility, and does not reset the date/time stamp on files!
Screen sizer Creates an empty form with radio buttons allowing it to be set to the standard screen sizes.
Useful for designing web pages for smaller monitors.

  Command-line Utilities

Entering the command name followed by /? will give a brief description followed by a list of parameters.

You should copy the files you want to a separate folder - e.g. C:\DosUts. You will then need to add this folder to the system path the System utility found within Control Panel:
