Codebureau - Matt Simner

After an extremely long time I've made an update to the DeleteOld console app and updated the CodeProject article.  The original was .NET 1.1 - this one's now 2.0 (I'm not on 3 yet!)

It still does the same things it did - deletes files of a specified age, but now also:

• Allows files to be deleted 'newer' than a certain age as well as 'older'
• Allows files to be deleted based on an absolute date (overriding the timeframe arguments)
• Allows the 'root' path to be preserved if 'remove empty folders' is selected and the path specified is empty.
• Fixed a bug in Arguments parsing regex as noted by dudik
• Changed output datetime format to 'full' rather than specific dd/mm/yyyy as noted by a.plus.01

I had a need for the absolute date, so thought I may as well cover off a few other things. 

Hope it's of some use...
