## Clear macOS Microsoft Office Recents
Microsoft Office 2021 version on macOS still lacks setting toggle to NOT save history of opened files nor clear all recently opened files in a few clicks.
Example of setting on Windows version:
This repo contains scripts + standalone CLI apps coded in multiple programming languages. __All perform the same task of clearing the MS Office recently opened list.__
Programming languages used (alphabetical order) consist of:
- Bash
- C
- C++
- Go
- Python
- R
- Rust
> ***Note***: Script/executable names may be different.
### Technical
This repo/project started with the single need of clearing the recents list. As I started to learn more programming languages, it evolved into an exercise to master the syntax of each language because it covers the following:
- user input/output
- arrays
- logicals
- conditionals
- strings
- functions
- types
- working with files (obtain full path)
- handling errors & invalid inputs
- compile as executable
