Private key to bitcoina ddress on Windows 95

[Johanakerblom]

You can get the tool from:   http://trax.x10.mx/bgen-win95.7z

The size of the package is 963K and the GPG signature is below.
Of course all source code is included.

I have repackaged it differently, so you can simply unzip the archive and click the "bgen_console.cmd" file in the App folder. Let me know if that works for you.

Code:

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----
Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (MingW32)

iEYEABECAAYFAlLgBQ0ACgkQ0dQqIfkZdf470ACeK7VRpZvxD8seglJe3OFH2d8H
wjMAoIRJTasfrodGqtKFPledpatFyI/3
=8bg6
-----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

I have unziped it but bgen_console.cmd asks for a program to be opened with.

What is the GPG for?

Ah, cmd files are not supported in Win95... Simply rename both cmd files to a bat extension, so you end up with:



Hopefully that will fix it.

The GPG sig is to verify the integrity and author of the package. If you're not familiar with using GPG, it's probably best to ignore this for now, as there's a bit of a learning curve...

I have renamed them.

This happens when i start bgen_console.bat: http://imgur.com/TMV5mPF.

I see... The screenshot was helpful. Please re-download the package - I have just added a fix for this issue (hopefully!). I think we're almost there.

This appears: c:\bgen-win95\App, and i can type after that.

Edit: Btw, alt+shift+7 doesn't work for backslash, nor does AltGr+7. Ctrl-alt+7 works, but not in my MS-DOS.

That's good. But the instructions are not displayed, apparently...
Anyway, here's how to use the tool:

just type:

bgen <any hex number>

For instance:

Code:

bgen 6299c8dc7a92448a6f926b323f108fd338245e6ac1f0f54f234f859a1f11f78b

should output:

Code:

(priv) hex: 6299c8dc7a92448a6f926b323f108fd338245e6ac1f0f54f234f859a1f11f78b

I typed: "bgen 129361263abdf" but an error messages appears saying it can't find MSVCR71.DLL.

Does it have to be 64 digits or does it add zeroes to it if it's not?

Yes, it does add leading zeroes if the input is shorter than 64 digits.
I have now included MSVCR71.DLL in the archive for your convenience - Please re-download the package one more time.

Edit: abcdef are hexadecimal digits, right?

I think I know what this is.  I will post a fix within an hour.

There we go... Hopefully this is the one!   http://trax.x10.mx/bgen-win95.7z

Always a challenge to get modern things to work seamlessly on an old OS... But I'm enjoying the challenge.

Code:

C:\BGEN-W~1\BGEN-W~1\APP>bgen abcdef

(priv) hex: 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000abcdef

Ya ! AH he eeh ehaha , it works, nice!

Edit: I have sent you 0.1btc,  will you work on the clipboard function now?

[deepceleron]

I just chopped some functions and features out of paperwal.py so it would run on Python 2.5, if you are interested in that as a paper wallet generator. I just have to get it back out of the python playground box... I've cythoned it but haven't gotten a win95 compiler working yet to make an exe.

Nah, i'm not really interested in that, i rather just write the private key in hex with a pen.

Great, thanks!
I will work on the clipboard function - expect an update within the next few days.

Added clipboard support in the latest version. This means 2 new behaviors:

1. if you just type 'bgen' without a hex number, the tool will process whatever input is in the clipboard at that time (if it's a valid hex number)
2. output is automatically copied to the clipboard in all cases

You can get it from here (temporary link):

http://trax.x10.mx/bgen-022-win95.7z

Does that work for you?

I guess i am just paranoid about modern computers being monitored even when they are so called "offline".

Flatfly, can you please update the link? It gives a 404 error now.

Hi, I thought you had downloaded it already.
Here's a fresh link: http://trax.x10.mx/bgen-023-win95.7z
I hope it works as expected on your system.

[Johanakerblom]

Something is wrong, when i open the console it tells me that there was an error when a file should be created.
