FrontEnd for TinyDrive

[beard0]

This morning I read an article about a system for storing files in tinyurls. The program that does this, and an explanation can be found here. It is completely command line based, so I decided to write a GUI front end for it, and this is it.

I am sending the comiled version, because again, I have used my customized GUI to make this. If you would like to see the source code, it's stored on TinyDisk. Here's the FrontEnd.tdf MetaFile:

code:

# TinyDiskFile - used to retrieve a file that has been stored in TinyUrl.com! # # By Acidus - Most Significant Bit Labs - Acidus@msblabs.org Version: 1.0 Filename: FrontEnd.t Size: 2406 Checksum Algorithm: CRC32 Checksum: 2259392157 Compression Algorithm: Deflate Encryption Algorithm: AES, 128bit Encryption Key: IlIg+IGr/IHxAbnmwLcXfA== # # Cluster Hashes # Clusters: 1 Cluster: a2ex7

Interesting, but then will probably find some way to stop this sometime soon - I don't think they are in the business of giving away free storage space on their sever...

Looks nice, once again, I like your GUI. I will try it out practically later (do you need TinyDisk for this to work? I assume so).

Yes, you need TinyDisk. I didn't include it in my zip, but it's a quick download from the site I linked at the top, and no need to install, just unzip it, and place my program in the same folder. I didn't include it because I couldn't find what type of licence it was being released under. :)

they can't really stop it.

I suppose they could validate for an active link at signup, but then again http://compsci.ca/v2/index.php?hash=text works. Limiting the size of the link undermines their own service.
