Cool thread, but even cooler with a little example of what can be done with each of these tools. Either a downloadable alias file or just a snippet of code would be excellent. I've only just looked into creating my own alias' and using commandline tools, so some examples would be VERY helpful!

Bring on the Wiki!!  :D

Each page could have the link to the command, the description, the example, the alias to download.

most of mine a quite complex... (not one-liner)

but here is one i love for CCleaner :
^cc$
CCleaner | "C:\Program Files\CCleaner\CCleaner.exe" /AUTO
just type cc then enter ... it cleans your browser cache, etc.

use it maybe 50 times a day


and see this one for del.ico.us post :

I have found one more commandline which is for creating virtual drives. It is nice and simple

http://www.ntwind.co...es/visual-subst.html

And here is the explanation from the author

"
You can use the following command lines:

1) to create virtual drive X:

  VSubst.exe X: C:\Path

2) to remove virtual drive X:

  VSubst.exe /D X:
"
and my alias
1000>>>virtual>->virtual $$1 $$2 | PATH TO\VSubst.exe $$1 $$2>+>^virtual (\S*) (.*)

Scanfs (file search, grep) http://www.saleensof...ware.com/ScanFS.aspx

kartal curious why you use this over locate32, any features im missing out on by not using it? And more importantly is there a way to integrate results in to farr like with the locate32 plugin?

locate32 needs to index . Scanfs is a file search tool, althou if you want it has indexing mode as well.

I've modified this to make a similar one for SweepRAM.
^sw$
SweepRAM | "C:\Program Files\SweepRAM\SweepRAM.exe" /s
