Win-Get

I think this is great. At least if you’re like me and have like 3 CMD.exe windows open at all times just because you’re addicted to the command line.

win-get is an automated install system and software repository for Microsoft Windows written in pascal (for the command line client) and php for the online repository. The ideas for its creation come from apt-get and other related tools for the *nix platforms.

The system works by connecting to a link repository. Finding an application and downloading it from the stored link using wget.exe . Then performing the installation routine (silent or standard). And finally deleting the install file.
