Our favourite downloads

There have been many great pieces of software available as free downloads over the years. Unfortunately, some of them are disappearing as the web matures. We keep copies of our favourites here for safe keeping.

Unix Utilities for Windows: If you've ever worked on a Unix system you probably got hooked on utilities such as grep, sed, and make. This file contains all those and more and works on all Windows platforms from Windows 95 to Windows XP.

gvim for Windows: Have you ever wanted to make massive edits to a text file such as a data file or html file? Are you familiar with vi , the editor used in Unix systems? If so, gvim is for you. It will edit monstrously large files that Notepad and WordPad will choke on. Because we work on both Unix and Windows systems all the time, we find this editor essential.
