    Hi y'all,

    I had a quick question for the gallery. I just created a duplicate file finder in python because I refuse to pay for one that I don't even know how they decide whether something is truly a duplicate file. One looked like it just used a name match. This uses a SHA256 method. I was debating whether the best route is to post the script directly or start a collection of links to githubs.

    Thoughts?

    Do you mean post your code just to share or for use to help evaluate other code online? I think if you have a complete program github would work but if there is a snippet of code that isn't working or aren't sure it will work directly in the message board will work. Anyone have any other thoughts?

    Answering the question. I am not thinking of a question so much as sharing something I found useful.

    Hi all,
    I think starting links to github pages would be great - that way it's easier for us to see what everyone is working on and stay updated. Maybe posting to the group if there are snippets or anything that's not up on github yet.
