Windows test comparison on my machine - for finding all .jpg in my D: drive

1 - classic command prompt: "D:\>dir /s /b *.jpg > 2.txt" - time 5 seconds (4581 files)

2 - this little gizmo: "D:\>fd -e jpg > 1.txt" - time 1 second (same 4581 files)

Conclusion: I have a new tool dropped in my System32 folder from now on. Thank you David Peter
