Looking for two particular softwares
« on: May 30, 2018, 12:34 AM »
I'm looking for two softwares.

The first is a free CLI tool built on top of jsNode that can encrypt one or more HTML pages, requiring a password to open them. I know this exists but can't remember the name of the tool.

The other I'm looking for is software that switches the Desktop wallpaper among images in a folder (in sequence or randomly) at user-selectable intervals. I think someone coded this for one of the N.A.N.Y.s, but I can't recall the user or name of the program.
Win 10 Pro running on a 3.2 GHz CPU and 12 Gb RAM

I use wallpaper cycler.  Not sure if this is what you were looking for, but it does what you say :)

The last request is easily answered: John's Background Switcher. That is a great wallpaper "swapper", but is not made by a DonationCoder. At least, I don't think the creator is a member here. What I am sure of is that it never was a N.A.N.Y. entry.

Is this helpful in answering your first request?
The easy path is usually downhill...

FWIW, I've had at least one report of it working on Windows 10 so you're welcome to try it. If you do, let us know how you get on with it.
