Thanks
- the great thing about this tool is that it's almost more than 600K to
install and when it is installed, it's unknown to the command prompt.
The good thing is that the compressed download expands to only 24K
executable.
In other words, a program that should have been available in the first place
uses 600K to create a subdirectory called Resource Kit and store a file in
that directory.
It's almost as good as the sample programs on MSDN online typically has a
size of 1.5K and addtionally some (as I recall) 50-100K for the
selfextracting executable used to decompress the sample.
