UnxUtils

I can understand in principle the remark about this being old and unmaintained but I could not find the w32 package referenced in the comment, only "GnuWin32" (I assume that was the one intended) which is here at sourceforge - however that package appears not to contain the date.exe utility which is in UnxUtils, at a glance the only date utility visible being one to print the date in Latin(!) The point of interest in UnxUtils for me is the aforesaid date.exe 38.5KB modified 10/10/2000 00:00, MD5: 5e978ec5f615396eaa1b14334197b68e which I found worked fine in a batch file on Windows 7 Home Premium x64 SP1 for the purpose for which I downloaded it namely to add the file's date/time attributes to its filename.

very useful project, thanks

I use it whenever I need to restore my sanity on Windows w/o diving into cygwin madness or mingw

So far, these unix commands work well in Windows 7 Pro 64-bit which is a relief given MS and their "show me the money" unix utilities cannot be installed unless I upgrade to a non-existent Windows 7 Ultimate release. So thank you very much for these as my decades old batch files continue to live on for several more years I hope.
