This set of documentation describes the Windows Commands you can use to automate tasks by using scripts or scripting tools. Executing dir /? is the same as using the help command to execute help dir.All supported versions of Windows and Windows Server have a set of Win32 console commands built in. Use the help switch with the dir command to show details about the above options directly in the Command Prompt window. At least in newer versions of Windows, the 4-digit year display is the default behavior and /-4 doesn't result in a 2-digit year display. The /4 switch forces the use of 4-digit years. This switch shows the "short name" equivalent for files whose long names don't comply with non-8dot3 rules. Standard dir command header and footer data remain the same. ![]() Items are listed left-to-right and then down rows. Use /w to show results in "wide format" which limits the items displayed to just folders (contained within brackets) and file names with their extensions. Use this option with one of the values below (colon is optional, no spaces needed) to specify a time field to be used when sorting and/or displaying results: This option shows all the files and folders in the specified directory plus all of the files and folders contained within any subdirectories of that specified directory. The data stream itself is listed in a new row, under the file, and is always suffixed with $DATA, making them easy to spot. The /r option shows any alternate data streams (ADS) that are part of a file. The easiest way to view or change a file's ownership from within Windows is via the Advanced button in the Security tab when looking at the file's Properties. Use this switch to display the owner of the file or folder in the results. Using /p is very similar to using the dir command with the more command. ![]() This option displays the results one page at a time, interrupted with a Press any key to continue. = Use this as a prefix with any of the above values to reverse the order ( -d to sort by newest first, -s for largest first, etc.). G = group directory first, followed by files Use this option with one or more of the following values (colon is optional, no spaces needed) to sort the dir command result in the specified manner: When executed alone, /o lists directories first, followed by files, both in alphabetical order. Use this option to specify a sort order for the results. Since this is the default behavior, the practical use is /-n which produces columns in the file or folder name > directory > file size > date > time order. This switch produces a result with columns in the date > time > directory > file size > file or folder name column structure. Use this option to show all folder and file names in lowercase. Items are listed top-to-bottom and then across columns. Use /d to limit the items displayed to just folders (contained within brackets) and file names with their extensions. This is the default behavior on most computers, so the practical use is /-c to disable the thousands separator in results. This switch forces the use of the thousands separator when the command is used in a way that shows file sizes. ![]() Use this option to show the dir results using "bare" format, which removes the typical header and footer information, as well as all the details on each item, leaving only the directory name or file name and extension. = Use this as a prefix to any of the above attributes to exclude items with those file attributes from the results. Use /a with one or more of the following attributes (colon is optional, no spaces needed) to show only those types of files in the command result: When executed alone, this switch shows all types of files and folders, including those with file attributes that typically prevent them from showing up in Command Prompt or in Windows. See the Dir Command Examples section below if this isn't clear. All three are optional since the command can be executed alone.

The 2021 Paperwhite (right) is the right size for Japanese manga, which tend to be smaller and less colorful than American comics, although it still looks fine on the 2018 model (left) The charming children's manga Yotsuba& reads quite well on the new Kindle. Tankobon-formatted manga volumes are readable on the previous Kindle, but they're more legible here because the text is slightly larger. Trade paperbacks and hardcovers both tower over the older and newer Kindles. The new one is wider than most mass market paperbacks and about the same height. The old Kindle screen is about the same width as a mass market paperback, but shows less text going down the page. The new Paperwhite (right) shows more words per page than the old one (left) That translates to 20% fewer page flips on the newer model-and in my mind, a 20% more restful experience.

The Paperwhite works with any USB-C power cable and adapter, but if you don't have one laying around, Amazon sells one for $14.95. The new Paperwhite lasts about a week with heavy use, but you can greatly extend battery life by turning off the front light and Wi-Fi.Īmazon includes a power cable, but no power adapter. It doesn't support fast charging, however-it still takes several hours to charge and powers up at no more than 9w. (In the case of the Signature model, though, wireless charging cradles sometimes trigger the button.)Ī USB-C port brings the Kindle in line with other mobile devices from the past few years. The bottom-mounted power button, a remnant from the 2018 model, bothers some folks, but I don't find it prone to accidental presses on the base Paperwhite model. The 17-LED system is much more even than the 4 LEDs on the base-model Kindle. The yellowness can also be tied to a clock, so the screen gets yellower as the night goes on to save your eyes. ![]() The new Paperwhites and Oasis have color-changing front lights that can go from blue-white to yellow using two sliders. The whole device still carries an IPX8 rating, so it can survive for an hour of dunking in fresh water or a three-minute dip in seawater. The new Paperwhite steps up from a 6-inch, 300ppi E Ink Carta display to a 6.8-inch panel that retains a 300ppi resolution. At 7.2 ounces, it's 0.8-ounce heavier than the previous model, which I initially thought would annoy me, but doesn't it's still light enough to comfortably hold with one hand for hours.

Marley entered Hydromatic’s history in 1980 when it purchased Wylain, Inc. Completed in late 1973, the plant was in full production in January of 1974. The 250,000 square foot manufacturing and office area, situated on a 25-acre site, provided Hydromatic considerable expansion room. Business increased so much that four years later, pressed for additional manufacturing and office space, Hydromatic constructed a new $3.0 million facility in Ashland. Hydromatic's new owners weren’t disappointed. In August 1969, after recognizing Hydromatic’s vast potential, Weil-McLain Company, Inc. Increased capacity required more personnel to operate the young firm and 200 additional employees came to man the torches, lathes, assembly lines and the office. In 1962, Hydromatic grew to 50,000 square feet of manufacturing ten times the size of the original plant. With exploding sales and the demand for more sophisticated pumps and control equipment, Hydromatic’s course was clear. From its beginning in a old highway garage in Hayesville, Ohio, Hydromatic grew from a one-model column sump pump manufacturer to a producer of a variety of pumps for use in the water pollution field. At that time, Hydromatic employed ten production personnel, one office person and occupied 5,000 square feet of floor space.Īs the years passed, Hydromatic established itself as a recognized pump manufacturer, achieving increasing distribution and sales.

At the small size, players need to work hard to find free cubes to eat and grow, and should pay attention to larger players that dodge their attacks. Players need to observe carefully to choose the right direction to move. So this is also an item that players should eat to speed up the game. Speed up item: when eating this item, the player's movement speed will be doubled, allowing the player to go fast to fight for free cubes, or to chase and attack other players, or to run fast to players who are chasing you to attack. ![]() /2 item: in contrast to x2 item, this item will make the player's cubes decrease by half, if the cube has a number of 2, it cannot be reduced anymore, so the player should avoid and limit eating this item, because will shrink quickly, making it vulnerable to attacks from other players.X2 item: when touching this item, all the player's cube will be doubled, so this is a very valuable and worth-eating item, helping players grow faster than other players.In addition, in the playground, there are items with different effects, the item will be activated when the player drives his cube to touch it, specifically items include: The player will drive the cube in a limited playing field, the player's task is to find free cubes to eat and grow, then if he sees other players with a smaller cube size, they can speed up to chase the attack, but be careful if you meet a player with a bigger cube than you, this time should find a way to keep your cubes and stay alive. The speed up time is limited, and when the speed up time is used up, it is necessary to wait a period of time to regain the speed up ability. The player uses the mouse or touch on the game screen to drive the cube, use the left mouse button or touch again on the game screen to speed up. But when it collides with another player's cube, your cube will still eat the other player's smaller cube, but when you hit the bigger cube you will die and end the game, but you can go back to the menu and start playing again. When colliding with free cubes, if the cube has a number less than or equal to it, it is edible, otherwise, the cube will be pushed away. In cubes 2048 the player will start with a cube and a number on it, initially a small cube with the number 2, then the player will go looking for cubes smaller than or equal to his cube to eat, after eating cubes with the same number will be accumulated into a new cube, so that the player's cube grows bigger.

She also wants to film herself getting the news, because that’s a thing that kids do now. She doesn’t want my wife and me near her when she finds out. The decision drops at 6 p.m., and she’s understandably sweating it. The girl is a senior in high school and about to hear from the college she applied to for early decision. The doctor tells her that her swollen lymph nodes are just that, and not cancer. She follows protocol as if she’s always known it. The girl knows what a doctor is, and she knows what the doctor needs to do. She doesn’t have to play Got Your Nose to calm the girl down, or play gentle mind tricks to get her to open up and say ahhh. I realize that, given that she’ll turn 18 just two months from now, this might be the last time I ever accompany her to this office. I see how much she’s grown as well, but I also see how much of her has not. I see the girl when she was a smaller child: kicking and screaming and clinging. So I see her legs dangling off the exam table, watching her kick her feet idly, and I remember. Sometimes a photo jogs my memory, but other times my brain retrieves those images without assistance.

Just like in the old days, there’s a fresh sheet of sanitary paper covering the table. We get called back and the girl takes a seat on the exam table. As such, this is the only place on Earth where I still wear a COVID mask. And there are germs in the air … so many germs that coming to this office feels like ducking under the cordon to enter the Chernobyl exclusion zone. There are free stickers at the counter for kids who just had to endure their regular vaccination shots. There are year-old magazines languishing on the side tables. There’s a large busy box, replete with sliding beads and spinning wooden gears for everyone (including bored dads) to futz with. There’s a play area off to the side where toddlers can burn the clock as they wait to be seen. The girl has gone to the same pediatrician’s office her entire life, and many things are the same as they were back when she had her very first appointment.
