Comment on How To Show The End Of a Text File (Tail)? by mike

Hi,

I notice a minor issue with this script if you try to tail a file using a value “nn” for number of lines to be shown which is larger than the total number of lines in the file: in that case nothing is displayed (unlike GNU tail where those lines would be displayed).

I made a slight change which changes this behavior such that it behaves more like GNU tail in that case:

42. For j = 1 To lngTail
43.
44. If aryLine(j) = vbEmpty Then Exit For
45. WScript.Echo aryLine(j)
46. Next

This is the first real answer I’ve found to the Winsxs issue and thank you for breaking it down in a way that is easily understandable. I have this friend with a lap top and his Winsxs file is 16.5 gigs doesn’t help he only has 2 32.5 hard drives(why? I don’t know it’s really stupid) Thank you for part 1 and I can’t wait for part 2.

Hi, I like this article and appreciate the work you put into making the mysteries of Windows 7 less confusing for we who don’t know much about computers at all. However the Hardlink Scanner 64 bit link you provide has a virus. I downloaded it just now and Norton found the WS.Reputation.1 virus. Just thought you would want to know.

That is why you shouldn’t blindly evaluate, but also use If ($Element -is [object]) {…} blocks…

This is one of the handiest PS scripts I’ve ever seen. Wish I’d had this before I built this web tool.
