Piet is one of Pee-wee Herman's rube-goldberg machines. It's not really practical for anything, but someone probably thinks it's fun to use.
Meldaril:
I needed to disable my network connection quickly so I wrote this script to disable the network adapter via WMI. Requires UAC elevation. I'm not sure why I turned the argument into a Ruby symbol.
--- Code: ---unless ARGV.length == 1
puts "Missing arguments. Lockdown --start to begin and --stop to finish lockdown."
exit
end
if ARGV[0] != '--start' && ARGV[0] != '--stop'
puts "Invalid argument. Use --start or --stop"
exit
end
mode = ARGV[0][2..-1].to_sym # '--start' -> :start
require 'win32ole'
wmi = WIN32OLE.connect('winmgmts://./root/standardcimv2')
adapters = wmi.ExecQuery("select * from MSFT_NetAdapter")
for adapter in adapters do
if adapter.Name == 'Ethernet'
if mode == :start
adapter.Enable
else
adapter.Disable
end
end
end
--- End code ---
Drydess:
can someone explain to me what a pointer is and how you're supposed to use it? i've really been stuck because i gave up early on c in favor of web design languages, but recently tried to get back into it, and still can't grasp much of the application without knowing pointers
