List of utilities

is there a txt file that describes all the .exe files contained in the fwtools bin folder? (I'm using Windows)

One can find general overview in the ReadMe.txt file in the download package and collect more details from following resources:

1. OGR utilities - ​http://www.gdal.org/ogr/ogr_utilities.html

3. MapServer CGI program is called mapserv.exe
