Pros
Wide-ranging file manipulation utility. No install; just run the executable. Small exe, suitable for placing on utility thumbdrive.
Cons
It's all command line, no GUI. Can take some time to puzzle out how to chain the large number of parameters.
Summary
Excellent utility, but due to its command line nature, could prove to be a challenge for the uninitiated. Help is available. It's only due to the lack of GUI interface that I gave this 4, rather than 5 stars.
quick and easy for use. supports the promissed features
