^Program^Description^
|FVerTest|allows a shell script to perform version checking on a Win32 executable file, provided it contains version information.|
|IsAdmin|checks if the currently logged-on user is an administrator (Windows NT 4.0 and later). It runs fine on Windows 9x/Me, where the current logged on user is always an administrator. It can also detect if the current user is a member of Administrators but the group is not enabled (e.g., when UAC is active on Windows Vista and later).|
|IsMember|can check if the currently logged-on user is a member of one or more groups that you can specify on the command line, and it can also list group memberships. Requires Windows NT 4.0 or later.|
|MinWin|minimizes the topmost window on the screen (useful in logon scripts).|
|NeedBoot|determines if there are pending file rename/move/delete operations for the next system boot. On Windows 9x/Me, it checks for the existence of any entries in the [Rename] section of WININIT.INI; on the Windows NT platform, it checks for the existence of the PendingFileRenameOperations registry entry. It can also list the entries in the [Rename] section or the contents of the registry entry.|
|NUPP|lets you temporarily map a drive letter, do some things, then restore the mapping to its previous value.|
|OSTest|tests the current operating system to see if it meets one or more criteria. You can check if the current platform is Windows 9x/Me or NT, the version number, service pack number, and build number. It can also detect whether the current OS is running a 'home' edition, whether it's a server or workstation, and the Terminal Server mode (remote desktop or application server).|
|RASConns|RASConns allows a shell script to determine if one or more RAS connections are active. It can also list active RAS connections and determine if a named RAS connection is active.|
|WinMsg|displays a Windows dialog box with a customizable message, buttons and icon. A shell script can detect which button was pressed. You can also read the dialog box text from a text file and specify a timeout period.|
