Files included in "PublicIP.zip": /PublicIP.zip /PublicIP_x64 /PublicIP_x64.exe /ReadMe_x64.txt /PublicIP_x86 /PublicIP_x86.exe /ReadMe_x86.txt ReadMe - Created 12th July 2017 by Leed a.k.a. Lee'd / LeedOff Contents 1. Description 2. How to use 3. How it works 4. License information 5. Disclaimer 6. Contact 1. Description PublicIP is a small 30 liner to make the public / external IP address visible to the user. This can be achieved with other Command-line tools, but I just wanted to be able to use a memorizable command that anyone could use as if it was always there. There is no particular reason why it is a C# based .exe and not a simple .cmd or .bat other than " I don't want to support that horrible batch/cmd 'language' ". 2. How to use After choosing the correct version (x86 or x64), you should rename the file to "PublicIP.exe" (because that is how it was originally intended to be called). PublicIP is a Command-line based program. It needs to be run via the windows-command-line (cmd.exe). To run the program from cmd.exe, simply type the name of the file ("PublicIP" / "PublicIP_x64" / "PublicIP_x86"). Upper- and lower-case generally do not matter. 3. How it works PublicIP simply fetches a string from canihazip.com and writes it to the console. As simple as it gets. 4. License information Use it for whatever you want, as long as it's not commercial. 5. Disclaimer PublicIP is a lazy 30 line C# program, which will neither protect nor publish anything. It will need an internet connection in order to work, and it will only establish a connection to canihazip.com [5.196.192.222]. If it does anything else, please tell me (see "6. Contact") and stop using it, as you may have run into a damaged / infected version. If you download the program PublicIP_x86.exe / PublicIP_x64.exe from anywhere else than github.com/leedoff, it is your own responsibility to make sure that it is safe. If you're not sure about where you got the .exe from, delete it and download it from the repository. 6. Contact Email: [email protected] Twitter: @Leed_off Facebook: @Leed.Official
