This project contains 3 separate java applications.

These have been completely written by Daniel Armbrust to date - but if you want to improve them - feel free.

The downloads for all of these programs can be found on the project webpage - http://armbrust.dyndns.org/programs/

The first application is a Duplicate Finder. If you have identical files on your system that have different names - this utility will find them (and optionally remove the duplicates) for you. This was written because I had a large number of pictures that I had copied from other people at school - who had copied them from other people - who had renamed them how they pleased - who had copied them from...

Basically, I had a lot of duplicate images with the same names. This application works on all file types, however - not just images.

It is written in java, using Swing for the GUI.

The second application is a simple directory lister. It will give you a text representation of a folder structure - with a few mangling options.

The third application is a tool for synchronizing folders. I use it for making automated backups from my windows pcs to network drives. I know, there are about a million ways to do this already... why did I write another one? Well, none of them that I found had a nice user interface that made it truely easy to use. Or they cost money, or they always copied the content, instead of just copying the content that has changed.

This application is written in Java, using SWT for the GUI.
