BuildIT - A tool for automating repetitive activities
« on: November 21, 2006, 11:08 PM »
Here's a cool program for automating routine activities you have to do repeatedly, potentially saving you lots of time. :-*

Do you have to run the same tasks over and over again, each and every day? Why not use BuildIT to automate those tasks, whether it is the final packaging of a product, an automated daily build, maybe sending out a mailing list, even backing-up files.

# Easy to use interface utilising drag 'n' drop and context menus
# Many specific tasks ranging from file management to executing JavaScript
# Use the supplied command line tool, for scheduling tasks
# Assign administrators to receive progress reports, and owners for each task
# Output to a log file or output window in two different ways
# Customise e-mail messages...

BuiltIt is free donationware by the way, so send the author a couple bucks if you use it.  My memory is that this tool started out specifically aimed at build automation (for programmers) but has grown more flexibile over time and can now be used to do a bunch of things..  :up:
