I was reading about regit.exe over at msft's site.

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=198038

Pretty much all the other tools on that page are freely available
(Dependency Walker, Regmon, Filemon, etc) -- but evidently not regit.exe.
It appears that only those who have msft's developer payware get this tool.

I want it. I cannot find it. I searched about on the web to see if it was
left hanging anywhere to snag it. Frankly I'd not have felt guilty if I'd
got hold of this small item without having paid bigbucks to msft for one
of their suites. Moot however -- as my search was futile.

So the next question. Any freeware tool that has the same functionality?
Register/unregister controls, with wildcard support? eg,

regxyz drive:\path\*.dll *.ocx

Not seen any CLI as far as I can recall, only GUI.
Haven't checked if they allow multiple selections.

Multiple selection, manual with mouse, I can do that by selecting a group
of files in explorer and clicking on the regsvr32 entry in my context
menu. It's definitley CLI I'm in pursuit of here -- for command script / bat
files. And the wildcard there, ideal. I am tired of spending labor gathering
up filenames in each directory and making a bunch of individual successive
lines for registering each control. Sounds so much better to be able to use
a standard template file with a single command.

And now I do get to have regit. Thanks to you for excavating it from the
hidden depths.
