NotVeryNice Posted October 7, 2004 Share Posted October 7, 2004 As some of us have been eager for the new version, I personally found it tiresome to manually download all the hotfixes.I wrote a little perl script that automates the process for me, that I figured I could share.You have to do a little tweaking of the hotfix file.It basically takes lines in the format ofADD SVC_POS\some_file http:\\some_file_download checksumand proceeds to download the hotfixes and setup the folders for xpcreateI effectively took the hotfix list from http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=22266and modified some of the lines to keep everything in the above format.Anyways, here's a zip. feel free to modify the perl script or hotfix list.- Required files:perl - http://www.activestate.com/wget - http://unxutils.sourceforge.net/Enjoy,NotVeryNice2k.rar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenMachine Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 Thanks for that, NotVeryNice. I suspect that having to install Active Perl scared off a few of the potential users. As soon as the next version is released, I hope this becomes a mute point ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
