Hi,
You're both right, of course, but I think I know of an easy solution
(even though I haven't looked closely at any of this yet, but they do
indeed appear to be .COMs).
"Ark v1.101 - COM archiver and EXE 2 COM converter" (45822 bytes)

I know what you mean, but it is worse than you think. The command line parsing
routines
eat up nearly 1000 bytes in each tool. Some of the tools would only be 100
bytes or so without
needing to interpret the command line. However, there are several reasons that
it is being made this way.

Might be a dumb question - but why creating so many micro tools? Would
it be possible to have all of them inside one binary, with behavior
adapted with a switch? (a la busybox - like "V8POWER VCURSOR HIDE") ?
It would certainly make the toolbox much more space-efficient on big
(fat) clusters :)
Oh.So while it's compiling,it shows funny little messages.Gotcha.Thanks for
explaining it to me.

That's the build process. :)
Each of them is nasm compiling the source for a specific tool. If you download
from github, you must build it yourself with the mkV8.bat file. (Running a
demo, checks if it is built. If not, it first builds it).
If you don't want to compile it yourself, the latest pr
I tried it out a while ago.The only question I had about it was this:why
does it take five minutes making statements such as "Grabbing
keys...","Revving engine",etc.Other than that,I found it useful.
