Danger Tools : Do some really powerful operations from the command line
In depth
A closer look at Danger Tools
Danger Tools package provides an application that allows you to do some really powerful operations from the command line. These include (but not limited to) creating hard links on NTFS (to files and directories), copying files with all attributes on NTFS, changing owner and group of files, setting process work set size and priority.The most powerful operation is to start a command prompt that runs with SYSTEM privileges. Danger Tools are integrated into a single executable file named `pvt.exe', therefore you can start any of the tools writing pvt on the command line.The format of the command line has to be the following:pvt [options] COMMAND [options] argumentswhere the COMMAND is the name of the actual command to be invoked, [options] are zero or more options and arguments are the arguments to the command. Some of the commands need specific options and may not need or even prohibit any non-option argument.The options have to be separated by one or more space. The options start with the / character (the character - can not be used) and is followed by the word of the option. For example /hard in the following example:pvt linkopy /hard c:\myfile.txt c:\yourfile.txtOption names are case insensitive and can be shortened so long as long they are not ambiguous. In this documentation we write the option names in the command synopsis with capital and lower case letters. The letters that are needed to uniquely define the option are written in capital letter and the rest of the option is written in lower case.Some of the options can have value attached to them. This has to be written together with the option with a = character between the option word and the following value. An option value can be string, number or symbol. If an option gets a different type of value than it expects an error happens.
