Powershell

Just a simple program that re-writes files in a folder to UTF-8. A production server I work on had an old version of Powershell running on it and a file needed to be in UTF-8 for it to be read by a Golang-script, so this was created.

This can be run from the terminal by calling the script and passing the logPath and pathToFiles parameters to the Script.

Doesn't write a BOM (Byte Order Mark) on the file, due to the Golang Script reading the file.

This simple script converts Microsoft Word .doc files to .txt files for my txt/log file scan through script to sift through. 

Code available in better format @ https://github.com/JoonasPit/powershellstuff/blob/master/wordtotxt.ps1

# Run through all doc-type files in a folder and convert them in to .txt-files

 

function wordConversion{

 

# Specify location

$location = Get-Location

# Get all doc-files

Text search tool in Powershell

Wrote a quick search tool for Windows that uses some cmdlets from Powershell to search through txt-files,finds certain key words and writes them in a easily readable format inside a potentially user defined outfile. (github)

The tool ask for the file being searched for and the word that the user wants to search these files for.
