Program's finished!
I just got finished with my program, finally. *whew* It took forever, but I feel like it's something that could actually be useful. I still have a couple of improvements I'm planning on making to it at some point, but right now it's basically a finished product. The first version, anyway. You can get it on my site at the c++ section. Not sure if any of you would be interested in using it or not. But, it's there if you want to look at it. The source code's there as well.
I just realized I forgot to put a description of it on my website. Trash... Oh well, it'll have to wait for later, because I'm tired of the programming/html & php for today. Well, here's what it does, then: You give it a path on your hard drive (you can either type it or use the browse button on there) and hit the count files button. It'll find the 10 largest files in the directory you told it to look in, and display them in the list box. Then you can double-click the file in the list box to see that file's property sheet, which gives you the size, full path, creation date, modification date, etc-- it's just the regular Windows property sheet. You can also tell the program to search subfolders so it looks in all the directory's subfolders and their subfolders.
I made it to help me find files that were taking up a large amount of space on my hard drive so I could quickly and easily clean it up by deleting the ones I no longer needed. Anyway, it'd be cool if it were of use to someone else besides me, but I guess that'll just be to see later.
Oh, and since it's still the first, happy New Year!
