1. Deleting multiple files...

I'd like to know how to delete multiple files that are in a diferent
folder...If any one knows, please send me the code..

I'd like to do the following, but in Euphoria

/begin code/

deltree C:\myfolder\mysecondfolder\*.* -- The *.* representing all
                                       -- the files in that directory

/end code/

Thanks,

j0k3r

2. Re: Deleting multiple files...

You could always just run the code

/begin/

system("C:\myfolder\mysecondfolder\*.*", 2);

/end/

and that would do it. There are also some people who have written libs in
Euphoria to do it without a call to `system()' check those out on the euphoria
site in the archive and user contributions.

Considering the nature of the request, I'd be a lot more comfortable if
joker had a real name. I can think of legitimate reasons for the request,
but I can think of more than a few that I don't much like. Anonymity is
nice when one is among enemies. Anonymity when asking for help is
a bit odd. Maybe I'm missing something here, but this request makes
me most uncomfortable.

Have you tried the following code

-- start code
system("deltree c:\euphoria\myfolder\*.*",2)
-- end code.

I guess the bottom line is the same as it always will be: Don't run
programs from an unknown source....  How would you reply to a request
of:  "How do I programmatically format a hard drive without user
interaction?"  I'm sure most of us could do it...  and do you always read
the entire source code before running a program (a 300-line program might
get a bit tedious and a clever person could easily hide the end result in
as many lines)?  But I'd like to think that this group of helping phriendly
people are above this type of behavior.

BTW:
'deltree' expects the name of a directory, not a wildcard file name.  If
you want to delete all files from a directory, you should use 'del'
or 'erase' instead of 'deltree'.  If you want the entire directory removed,
leave off the
'\*.*'.

Oh come on. Who doesn't use 'deltree' or 'rm -r' quite often? I do --
every day. I've also had to write a program to do this (it's called
automated system maintenance). Luckily I was doing it in C, which has ftw()
-- file tree walk...

If the 'j0k3r' wants to do something malicious, then he can easily do it
with system(). You're not improving security by being prejudiced.

        First, if this kid's from a hacking group that can't even figure
out how to do that, their programs won't go anywhere and there's no risk.

I actually looked at the Global Hacking Alliance homepage, and I will speak
for myself! I don't want anything to do with people that advertise themselves
in the way that page advertises. The question makes it look like joker IS
some script kid looking for one of us to provide him a quick plugin to cause
maximum damage. It appears that he has been accomodated. Euphoria
is a perfect language for quick and dirty hacks...with peek and poke. Let us
not compound the situation by happily providing the knife with which to slit
our own throats.

        If joker is what you suspect, then he can't possibly understand how peek
and poke work. The danger you're talking about is imagined.

I suspect some of his friends at the GHA are not script kiddies. Besides, I
will have nothing to do with someone who advertises himself in that fashion,
regardless of his capabilities or lack of them. Lie down with dogs, get up
with fleas. I see no reason to encourage idiots.

Don't you think that being rejected/insulted could reinforce his unkind
tendences?
Maybe showing more tolerance could bring him on better tracks?
I have found that seeing the great helpfullness on this list brings you
somehow the desire to be helpfull too.

        If his friends aren't script kids, then they know how to
recurse directories, deleting anything in them. Don't you think he would
have asked them first?
        And that's not even my point. My point was entirely about
prejudice over a name, and then over a counter-culture. Once upon a time
'hacker' was an honorable title. Sometimes it still is... but obviously
not here. The fact that a certain group turned out to be likely script
kids instead of hackers (as they call themselves) is irrelevant.

        I agree. But it won't happen today. If you teach him how to do
what he wants to, then he is a step closer to being what he wants to be (a
hacker). Generally (from personal experience) when script kids get a clue,
they tend to be truely supportive and positive -- basically they grow up.

With all this talk, don't you think it's a little rude to talk about 'him'
as if 'he's' not here? 'he' is on the list after all. I know I wouldn't like
being talked about like I wasnt there.
Also, over a while the term Hacker has been redefined. Recently it has meant
someone who breaks into computer systems non-mailciously and for the
challenge of it (despite pulbicity to the contrary, the malicious ones are
Crackers). Now it is again starting to mean someone who 'hacks' together
code or writes difficult code as per the discussion on this list of zen
coding :)

I figured my last comments might stir up some controversy and I apologize.
I automatically assumed malicious intent when I put together the nature of
the request and the content of GHA's website.  Saying that Jok3r is
unwelcome here was definitely too harsh but I only meant that if his/her
intent was to share malicious code with us...

Sorry... next time I _will_ steer clear of these types of threads.

18. Re: Deleting multiple files...

First of all:

1. I am not a 'script kiddy'. I program in Win32Asm, C, and a bit of
pascal.

2. My hacking has nothing to do with why i am asking to delete
multiple files

3. I am making a program called "Recent Remover". It will remove the
files from the RECENT directory, but so far I have only found a way
to delete 1 file at a time!

4. I mostly don't hack, I'm more of a cracker (As you can see at my
webpage: Http://jok3r.cjb.net)

5. If i was too stupid to understand the code, I would not be a
leader in GHA/PC.

6. If i was planning to make a 'vile' program, I would of done it in
any other language that I know of, don't you think!!??

any more question..no..goood

        Sweet, what kind of code do you write?

        IMHO, that shouldn't matter. Basic operational information ought
to be widely available.

        (Here's where I enrage a few people, if they want to be immature,
so be it) You need to do a recursive file tree walk. Since you know C,
check out ftw(), and try to emulate that in Euphoria. Just hand it code
that puts directories on a stack, and deletes files. Then pop the
directories off the stack and delete them.

        Sigh.

        From personal experiences 'hacking groups' (as they call
themselves) tend to have idiots in control that know nothing about code,
but I don't know anything about GHA.

        Exactly, C is still more widely portable than Euphoria.

I did see, and I consider the whole genre about the lowest exercise of
lame minds stuck in puberty. A bunch of adrenaline junkies looking for
the next high. Oh look at the latest little trick for misusing somebody
else's code. Has it ever occurred to any of the overbright and under logical
denizens of these "associations" that the people whose code they are
"cracking" were writing for a purpose that had nothing to do with security.
Something useful, productive was being attempted. Security is not
productive, it is defensive. It adds nothing to anything except itself. It only
prevents destruction and theft. It does not do any useful thing. It is a tax
charged by delinquents whose only role in life is to show they are

Jeepers people - we should be a bit more careful about insulting each other.
It causes bad feeling.

This is important, because a while ago an idiot caused a lot of damage to
people on this list because of bad feeling. It was a trojan horse attack
using this same deltree command and it wiped out a bunch of hard-drives.
Just because someone is on the other side of a computer screen doesn't mean
it's alright to say whatever you want about them. Everyone has feelings, and
if feelings get hurt, than other stuff can get hurt too.

Apologize and make up before it's too late.

Rett,
I have been on this list for a while (couple years) in one way or another.
I have seen the language grow by leaps and bounds and I have seen this list
prosper into a community.  And as a member of this community I would like to
say that I would rather be in the company of someone like Joker who is up
front with us, rather than someone like you who promotes hate, intolerance,
and mud-slinging.  I don't know who exactly I speak for on this (besides
myself), but your the only one who we want to "GO AWAY!".  So please stop
the negativity.

I've previously kept most of my comments about this to private email, but
this part warranted a response.

How is he up front with us?  All we've got is an alias and an anonymous
email address.

Adam,

If you prefer company of gutless, semi-literate thieves to intelligent
discussion, I am afraid you are frequenting a wrong list.

In what way is Rett promoting hate and intolerance? As far as I can
see
it is just you who is practicing mud slinging. I do not like every
thing Rett has ever said. In fact he gets on my nerves too with his
constant harping (he has a peek-and-poke bee in his bonnet, hasn't
he?), but he has contributed more thought in two months  than you in
two years. We need him more than cheer leaders of your kind.

Rett, I think you are out of line.  Jokr3 has been on this for quite a
while.  I don't have a problem with him nor does most of the other people
who haven't responded or have responded.  I don't think you have any right
to tel ANYONE to go away.  I would actually like it if YOU went away, as I
wouldn't have to download 20 paragraphs every other day as to why you prefer
one command line format over another...
Quit being so paranoid and unfriendly.

You seem to mistake silence as some sort of tacit approval. I'd be hesitant
about arriving at a similar conclusion.
