aws-cli
Universal Command Line Interface for Amazon Web Services
The AWS CLI is the universal command-line interface for managing AWS services, automating tasks, and scripting cloud workflows. It exposes nearly every public API from EC2 and S3 to IAM, Lambda, and beyond, providing parity with the service SDKs in a tool you can run anywhere. Profiles, regions, single-sign-on, and credential helpers make it straightforward to switch contexts securely across accounts and environments. Its output controls and JMESPath querying let you slice, filter, and transform JSON responses directly in the shell, which is essential for automation. Waiters, paginators, and retries handle long-running or large list operations cleanly so scripts are resilient. The CLI’s stability and extensive documentation make it a cornerstone for CI/CD, incident response, and day-to-day operations. -

jdbc2csv.jar
Command-line sql JDBC tool
jdbc2csv is a small command-line tool written in JAVA and can be used on all platforms, for which JRE 8 or higher is available. To connect to a specific DBMS the tool uses its JDBC driver. The result of the executed 'select' query is displayed in CSV format ( different standards are supported ). When there is an error the tool stops with exit code 1 and the error message is output on stderr. jdbc2csv is created with a main purpose to be used in shell-scripts. Relatively easy to configurate, this tool is suitable for queries ‘select’, ‘update’ and ‘delete’. I think that is not suitable for a large number of requests, like 'insert'. -

Live CD With Zerofree Utility i686 32Bit
A Custom Puppy Linux Live CD With Zerofree Utility i686 32 Bit
After Booting with this Live CD, just click on the CDROM icon on the Desktop, to open its folder contents, then Right Click the zerofree.sh file and Choose the "Run in Terminal" option and then follow the instructions shown on the terminal. As you may be aware, Booting with a Live CD, requires that you need to change the Boot Order on your System / Guest BIOS, quickly on startup, by pressing either F2 OR F12 OR F10 OR an equivalent key and then change the Boot Order to boot from the CDROM first. Some Hints: Puppy Linux Live CDs show some dialogs / settings window on first startup / first shutdown. Feel free to dismiss / close them, if you do not want to make any changes, to the live cd's operation, next time, on the same system. This will not affect the zerofree's work in any way. Apart from this, using the Internet Browser, built in, would require a Free Memory of 1 GB or more, for better Performance ( as it is generally a memory intensive activity ) -

m6811dis
M6811 Code-Seeking Disassembler
The M6811 Code-Seeking Disassembler is a command-line tool that lets you enter known starting vectors for a given code image for the 6811 micro. It will disassemble the code and follow through branches to assist in the separation of code and data. Its companion Fuzzy Function Analyzer uses DNA Sequence Alignment Algorithms to locate similar code in multiple binaries, facilitating reverse-engineering. Originally written to analyze code from GM automotive engine controllers, but is useful anywhere a 6811 micro is being used. Version 1.0 was written in Borland Pascal in April 1996, and updated to v1.2 in June 1999. It was later rewritten to C++ in July 1999 through Jan 2000. While it's been freely available since its creation, it's being released here as an open-source project so the world can better use it as it sees fit. Version 2.0 is completely reworked in 2014 to compile and run with GCC and STL to make it fully portable and accessible to all computer platforms. -
