BEGIN OF UPDATE: 2026-01-18 LAST UPDATEL: 2026-02-18
BBC and CNN use the narative and political framing of the criminal Islamist Djihadist Mullah Regime of Iran
20 Mil. USD have been paid to influencers and PR companies in western countries to relativate, deny, negate and downsize the Crimes of Islamist Djihadist Republic of Iran
The western Democracies are infiltraded by hundreds of NGOs and Consulting Institutions of Islamist Criminal Republic of Iran
This Regime has killed at least 12000+ 40000+ protestors in 48 hours (8th - 9th Jan. 2026),
after turning off the internet, Mobile-net, telephone-net and even electricity and they started to
disturb the satellite frequencies by military jammers from china, to also turn off the internet connection through Starlink!
But some brave people which traveled to abroud smuggled a lot of images and videos, but also figures/statistics collected
by brave doctors in Iran. The figures/numbers currently after three six weeks of protesting are:
- Death toll:
60000+94000+ since 2026-01-18 until today 21th Feb. 2026 (secret services estimate numbers over 100000!) - Blined:
8000+10000+ - Wounded: 350000+
- Detained: 130000+ (which is decreasing due to daily silent mass executions)
When the family of killed protestors try to get the dead body, they have to pay the "bullet-price" of 5000 to 7000 USD for each Bullet! An average worker earns about 100 to 200 USD per month!
The bodies of those whose relatives cannot afford the bullet-price are buried in mass graves without names or any other identifying information or markings at unknown locations.
Car and ferniture are also confiscated.
Scared from Final Shot of Regime-Thugs, many wounded people are scared to go to hospitals or doctors, so they lie at home and die slowly due to Infections or Internal Bleedings.
Now(2026-01-18), after 120+ hours of internet-shuttdown, they turn it for some time on to transfere their BitCoins to wallets out of iran! Netblocks.org Iran
The regime thugs invaded into hospitals by force and killed wounded people by final shot.
The Doctors and Nurses, resisted against the regime thugs, have also been killed or detained with death sentence!
END OF UPDATE.
Directory FingerPrinter (abbreviation: dfp) is a CLI (dfp.exe), which creates and compares directory fingerprints: a directory fingerprint is the aggregate of all names, timestamps, sizes, and hash sums of files within a specified directory.
The main purpose and intention of dfp is to recognize any changes to any directory and/or compare two directories, containing mostly non-text files, without the need for any versioning management software like git or subversion, etc.

What is a "directory fingerprint"?
A directory fingerprint is the aggregate of all names, timestamps, sizes, and hash sums of files within a specified directory.
What can I do with the directory-fingerprinter dfp.exe?
- View a detailed list of files in a directory (including versions of assemblies and hash sums).
- Save the fingerprint of a directory for comparing and detecting changes in the future.
- Compare two folders.
- Compare two directory fingerprints.
- Compare a fingerprint (file) against a directory or vice versa.

Since dfp provides many options, you may want to save them once and use them later just by loading them, instead of typing them again and again.

| --load-options | dfp -lo "options.txt" -d .\ | Loads options from a file |
| --save-options | dfp -so "options.txt" -d .\ | Saves options to a file |
For saving currently used parameters, just add the parameter --save-options or short -so followed by a filepath when you call dfp, like this:
C:\> dfp --recursive --directory "C:\Directory\SubDir\Release" --assemblies-only --ignore-timestamps --ignore-size --ignore-hashsum --print-colored --save-options "C:\dfp-opts-for-Release.json"or by using short parameter-names:
C:\> dfp -r -d "C:\Directory\SubDir\Release" -ao -its -is -ihs -pc -so "C:\dfp-opts-for-Release.json"After you have saved the paramters (as described in 8.1), you only need to use 2 parameters to load all other parameters:
C:\> dfp --load-options "C:\dfp-opts-for-Release.json"or by using short parameter-name:
C:\> dfp -lo "C:\dfp-opts-for-Release.json"dfp --directory .\
