UnxUtils
open-in-new
<p>UnxUtils is a collection of <a href="/facts/Porting/7s6tFs8B">ports</a> of common <a href="/facts/GNU/HlAKKBdt">GNU</a> <a href="/facts/Unix-like/YAKrAxzd">Unix-like</a> <a href="/facts/Utility/wlMDG74L">utilities</a> to <a href="/facts/Native_(computing)/yNez4jAK">native</a> <a href="/facts/Windows_API/RRw4RtTu">Win32</a>, with <a href="/facts/Executable/VSst9eLA">executables</a> only depending on the <a href="/facts/Microsoft/nGIDDXdx">Microsoft</a> <a href="/facts/C_(programming_language)/Ky2No763">C</a>-<a href="/facts/Run-time_system/YmCuC4xP">runtime</a> <a href="/facts/Microsoft_Windows_library_files/RwUj8tdg">msvcrt.dll</a>. The collection was last updated externally on April 15, 2003, by Karl M. Syring. The most recent release package available as of December 2016<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=UnxUtils&action=edit">[update]</a> was an open-source project, UnxUtils at <a href="/facts/SourceForge/lxYAgUAX">SourceForge</a>, with the latest binary release in March, 2007 (though the files within are dated from the year 2000). The independent distribution included a main <a href="/facts/Zip_(file_format)/qDrrYIB9">zip</a> <a href="/facts/File_archiver/ER6mjCCy">archive</a> (UnxUtils.zip, 3,365,638 <a href="/facts/Byte/BNHUp9Qq">bytes</a>) complemented by more recent updates (UnxUpdates.zip, 878,847 bytes, brought some binaries up to year 2003), but the SourceForge project has no UnxUpdates.zip package. An alternative source of Unix-like utilities for Windows is <a href="/facts/GnuWin32/tHohzouq">GnuWin32</a>; it has later versions of many programs, but requires supporting files (e.g. DLLs) in many cases. </p><p>The utilities included are: </p> <ul><li><a href="/facts/Agrep/QWARW3jS">agrep</a>.exe</li> <li>ansi2knr.exe</li> <li><a href="/facts/Basename/EwoA4aB3">basename</a>.exe</li> <li><a
