[quote]Hi guys,

I could not find shuf in GnuWin32, so I assume it hasn't been not ported to
win (yet?)

Do you have any tip to achieve the same functionality?

What I actually need is to list all files in a folder (find c:\windows) and
provide each item to an executable in random order. I was planning something
like:

find c:\windows | shuf > list.txt
for /f %%G in (list.txt) do (
  dosomething with %%G
)[/quote]
You may need to write a simple program yourself using a pseudo-random number
generator or even the `noise.sys' hardware prng driver.  The source code of
shuf itself may give you some hints on how to do this, otherwise look at standard
programming references.
