Computers and Related Technology

This page contains information about various aspects of computers and computing technology that I am interested in. It also contains links to several programming projects that I have worked on.

I have been known to write little useful software projects. I have also been known to write little useless software projects. The following is a selection of each for your enjoyment.

crystalfontz in perl - My take on the packet protocol for CrystalFontz serial (rs232) devices from Perl
p5glove - Getting the P5 Glove functioning in pure-data (pd) in Linux via Open Sound Control
nzbperl - NZB based nntp/usenet downloader in Perl (use those NZB files in Linux!)
pure-data - My patches/abstracts for pure-data (pd).
linkpile - I pile up links for your perusal.
PicMeme - automated visual meme browsing
eren - Perl expression file renaming
ChachScan - Halflife server scanner
the ghetto drum system - PC based drum trigger system built from simple components
comic cache - online comics dipslayed neatly on a single page.
debdeps.pl - Reverse dependency finder for Debian apt
conmat - Real simple stupid console matix simulator for DOS, to be used in a 16-monitor monochrome video wall
Text Terminal - Configurable Win32 screen saver that displays text from a local file or network URL.

Older projects -- unsupported, and otherwise deprecated trash:

Mailthingy - Windows command line util to send a text message to a PCS phone
TacoPost - Simple yet flexible MFC Windows app to post your dynamic IP to a web page
BattleMail Cheat/Crack - Simple and small utility (with full source code) to extract moves from a BattleMail document (and cheat your ass off).
Scrollie - used to scroll a bunch of random text in a browser window. Looks like something they would put in a movie. Details.
