sscpfe

Super Simple Command Prompt File Editor (sscpfe).

As it states this application was created to perform file operations in Windows command prompt.

Introduction (Why?)

Recently I used linux a lot. There are a lot of text console-based editors (vim, nano, etc.). Later I used Windows again and... you know... notepad. So I decided to create some sort of nano (my favorite console text editor) editor for Windows.

Why C#?

Firstly, there are a lot editors for linux and no editors (joke) for Windows. This one is exclusive.
Secondly, why the hell did I learned C# in university?

Build && install && run

Build

To build this application you need to copy this repo

git clone https://github.com/greentech72/sscpfe.git

You will see something like:

$ git clone https://github.com/greentech72/sscpfe.git
Cloning into 'sscpfe'...
remote: Enumerating objects: 370, done.
remote: Counting objects: 100% (370/370), done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (159/159), done.
remote: Total 370 (delta 272), reused 301 (delta 210), pack-reused 0
Receiving objects: 100% (370/370), 89.11 KiB | 2.17 MiB/s, done.
Resolving deltas: 100% (272/272), done.

Then open .sln file under sscpfe folder with Visual Studio.

Set necessary options in your Visual Studio project and build in release mode.

In build log you will see something like:

Build started...
1>------ Build started: Project: sscpfe, Configuration: Release Any CPU ------
1>  sscpfe -> C:\Users\danya\source\sscpfe\sscpfe\bin\Release\sscpfe.exe
========== Build: 1 succeeded, 0 failed, 0 up-to-date, 0 skipped ==========

After that under sscpfe folder obj/Release folder will be created. There you can find sscpfe.exe file witch you can run.

Install

If you want to be able to use this application from command line like

sscpfe

and not like

path_of_repo/sscpfe/obj/Release/sscpfe.exe

You should add path to sscpfe.exe to your path vars.

Just copy full path and perform next steps.

Run

After that you can easily check if sscpfe was installed. Just run:

sscpfe --help

And if you are able to see help message then you're welcome.
