How to change Win98SE system files's date attributes?

[davk_88]

A little commandline utility to touch files, directories and lowercase all names.

I use it for touching software versions.

Tricky business to do this to directories in Win9x - you have to use undocumented kernel functions that

access the MSDOS lfn functions that the gui (windows) uses for its file access.

usage:

"tlc /h" gives help

"tlc" lower cases all file, directory names in all subdirectories recursively

"tlc D:dd:mm:yyyy T:hh:mm:ss" lower cases and stamps every file and subdirectory as above.

hope you find it useful

only the 5.x versions (currently the author of Attribute Changer has version 5.21 and 5.23 posted at his site) are not Win95 compatible. I have done searches of older versions of Attribute Changer and found these old ones that can work under Win95.

more accurately, Attribute Changer versions 5.20 and higher do not support and do not work under Win95.

I happen to find version 5.10 of AC here:

This one does work under Win95 but requires HTML Help and IE installed.

and thanks davk_88 for the TLC tool. I'll test it out when I have the time.

then again maybe not. I'll stick with programs that use GUI instead of command line interface to change the date/time attributes
