Wildcards support?

[sergeevabc]

Windows 7 x64, Hashit 1.2.0

$ hashit.exe -p -c sha256 -f sum --threads 1 *.7z
ERROR 2024-05-09T...: file or directory issue: *.7z CreateFile *.7z: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.

Windows.... So in unix/linux this would be taken care of by the shell which was the intended use. I don't have easy access to a windows machine at the moment but I will have a look when I do get the chance.

My expectation here is nurtured by hash calculators like yours, Ben.

Come on, Ben, wildcards support exists for decades, people are used to it. For example, there is an old rehash, it runs both on Windows and Linux, it allows to hash not only classic *.txt, but crazy masks such as

Manual
If you would like to hash all jpg and jpe files in 'C:\web', use this:
rehash C:\web*.jp[eg]

Some of the new stuff called zpaqfranz in addition to the apps I mentioned earlier.

$ zpaqfranz hash *.txt -blake3 -pakka

You do understand I work on this in my spare time?

While I understand it can be frustrating to wait for this, but you need to consider what it means for the person maintaining the code. I not only have to source a Windows machine, I then have to setup my tooling on it, start development, renew myself with how windows works and resolve the issue.

Like I get it. You want the feature now, but the source is available. You can do it yourself if you want and submit a PR and if it works I will merge it.

Now as I mentioned I am looking at this now. The moment I finish off the audit functionality which is on a branch and merge that in I will be looking at this again.

Thank you.

I am going to write this nicely once.

I do not owe you or any other person not my immediate family or direct employeer any of my time.

And I am going to reply this nicely once again. You created this repository in a public, not your private space, which is why people come here. And these people are just using the issue tracker for its intended purpose, namely, they report problems and expect solutions. Hand washes hand: people act as free testers to help you polish the product you then brag about in your resume… You, Ben, could delete the repository, mark it abandoned, delete the Windows branch so that you no longer burden yourself with its support, or even say that you started the project just for fun without having the knowledge to address emerging issues. But of all the options, you chose to ignore people who trusted you. And that hurts feelings, it's just rude. Shame on you, Ben.

In which case I offer you a refund of the money you have paid and this link https://boyter.org/posts/the-three-f-s-of-open-source/

Have a good day.

Windows users amirite?

Shame on you, Ben.

The lack of self-awareness here is appalling

or you could accept that you are using an operating system that even Microsoft has not supported for over 5 years, and this is a free product provided on an as is basis with no explicit or implicit guarantee of support.
