(I'm sorry if this is on wrong place, and my English is probably bad.)

I Made some stuff

ShellXCute
ShellXCute is a basic program that runs contents of a file. (example: batch files from Windows, sh files from Mac/Linux)
Usage: 
shellxcute <file name>
Pastebin: eFM6tCr2

Cat
Cat is a basic program that prints the contents of a file to screen.
Usage: 
cat <file name>
Pastebin: 8SH85Cf5

weGet

Usage: 
weGet <URL> <file name>
Pastebin: PATF5vha
(btw i chose the name weGet because progran functions similar to wget in linux and i had no idea what can i name it )

Ok, so first: ShellXCute. You never close the file handle. You should do that, or the user won't be able to delete that file until a computer restart. Same with the 'Cat' program. By the way, nice idea you got there. I never thought about making a program to execute ComputerCraft shell commands from a file. Anyway, good luck with these utilities :)/>. Maybe more coming soon :P/>?

Am I the only one who noticed that the first two files only have one line changed.

That's actually very true
