I am getting odd behavior out of my anti-virus, AVG. It is convinced several of the utilities are infected with trojans, but doesn't really give any information on it. I know it sometimes does this with some game patching utilities, convinced they are malware, so I thought I would just throw it out there.

It probably would. Any tool that modifies another running program is likely to be flagged.

I would be more than a little concerned....

I run AVG and it has yet to flag any tool I have downloaded for dwarf fortress... Or complain about any tool or anything..  I use avg because it is fairly reliable and free, but the last false positive I saw with it was an installer from hypercat games... *I ran it sandboxed and I am fairly certain since it changed nothing it was a false positive*

Whatever it is flagging, either you have a detection turned on I don't, I have never used the tool, or it really is something.

I am getting this too now with the latest version of AVG. I've been using 5.14 since it came out, with no trouble until the latest version of AVG free.

Yeah, I just scanned them and I am getting it too now.

I submitted them to AVG for further testing.

I looked around for an answer to this, but couldn't find it. In dfprospector-all.bat I cannot see minerals because my cmd screen cuts off due to too many lines of text. How do I fix this? Sorry if it's been answered before, I just couldn't find it.

There should be a scroll bar to the right. Also, clicking on the top-left icon will give you a menu that has the preferences screen as one option. You can set the size there (both current and default).

Also, stupid antivirus is stupid, as expected. If you don't trust stuff, you can grab the source and compile it yourself. All the tools are freely available. I do all builds on a windows 7 VM that has limited access to the network (no shady things).

Thank you very much. (For the record, I had to increase the buffer window size).

You could also try redirecting the output to a file; just type dfprospector-all > whatever.txt in your cmd window and any output will go to whatever.txt.

You should write a tool for that. There is a similar tool in the playground that you can modify. The dll contains the code for the DFHack library that the tools use.

Oh hell yes.  This is what I initially wanted to do with dfhack.  If you haven't submitted the code for this to the dfhack repo, you definitely should.

Runesmith uses DFHack. Therapist does it itself.
