This page hosts some of my older porjects which I'm not maintaining or following anymore, as I don't have time or I simply moved on from them. You used to find here a lot more stuff, but it was dropped when my previous hoster closed up. No more kernel patches or LIRC drivers are available, sorry.
You're completely welcome to take over these projects, just drop me a mail so that I can link your progress here. The KDE apps should probably be imported inside KDE's SVN repository to be available to more developers to work on them, but some of them might also be rewritten using Ruby for instance.
This tools allow to create a man page starting from an XML file using
libxml2.
The autotooled version is tested on Linux and FreeBSD, it should compile
on MacOSX/Darwin, but there is already provided by the system itself :)
This project is currently suspended as it's too limited.

I wrote this library for my ATMOSphere
project, to receive and send files to and from the router.
Warning: documentation is not available right now, I'll mirror it on
SourceForge ASAP.
Licence: LGPL-2.1
If somebody wants to take over this, it would probably find its way in
KDE's extragear module, or inside their playground module, so just contact
me and I'll upload there the last version of my code.

It's written in Python and uses
pyirclib to handle the IRC protocol.

This package contains some one-file programs I wrote for simplify my tasks
probably most of the work they do can be done better with a script in
Python, but I prefer work with C++ as long
as i can. Also, joinlines (which is shipped both in C++ and Python form, is
much more slow using the Python version!).
The sources are tested compilable and working right on Mac OS X Panther.
The first utility is Upload ETA, which allow you to get the ETA of an upload, knowing the complete size of the file. I use it to monitor uploads on my FTP when someone is passing me a big file.
The second one is Join Lines, a micro-utility which loads two files, usually with the same number of rows, and join them into a unique text with rows created by concatenate the ones into the files.
The third util is unicode2ascii. Actually this is a rough hack to get a clean 8-bit ascii file out of a 16-bit unicode file from Windows 2k and XP (like the .reg files). It removes the two bytes which selects the encoding, and all the extended bytes from characters.
wgetf is a looped printf which prints to a sh-script file the wget commands to get a series of file named similarly.
firmfinder is an utility for who love to hack with device's firmwares. It searches in a file for the gzip's magic numbers and then output the bytes from those to the end to stdout.
getheader is an utility which take two files and extract the 'header' part (if present): output on stdout all the identical bytes at the top of the files themselves. Useful to find out the header part of an unknown binary filetype.
You can get the package with the source files, the Makefile to build them and a copy of the GPL from the download page.
