Miscellaneous Open Source Bits and Pieces

Mostly stable and usable projects

1. histstore - do you routinely work with long, complicated, obscure command lines across lots of different machines? Histstore makes it really easy to capture and organize those commands reducing or eliminating the need to re-research the syntax and usage.
2. iupexamples - handful of examples for Chicken Scheme + IUP GUI.
3. margs - Matt's minimalistic argument handler, used in Megatest and other projects.
4. qtree - quad-tree implementation
5. voter - tool to implement approval voting polls as a command line application from Unix. Relies on being setup setuid.
6. pkts - shar1 signed data snippets, similar to what the fossil source code management tool uses. Used in Megatest.
7. dailycurse - generate colorful insults, mostly safe for work but some might push the limits.

Projects in Various stages of development

1. mfind - Scan directory trees and create an sqlite3 indexed database of files and paths. Similar to locatedb.
2. netlistdb - import Verilog netlists into sqlite3 relational database
3. vcd - log data to a Value Change Data file, there are viewers that can open vcd files. Verilog simulators usually support the VCD format.
4. cvrg - code coverage database, manager and viewer. Not usable, needs IUP code updated.
5. teleprompter - slow scrolling teleprompter, run in an xterm with the font set really big!
6. geolib - collection of geometry functions.
7. mutils - hierarchial hash implementation. Better to use the one in common.scm in the Megatest code.
8. textcalc - Insert math into your ascii documents. Uses sqlite3 files to keep the values sticky making circular dependencies workable.
9. xfig - generate xfig files.

Other projects:

• Megatest - a highly flexible and powerful testsuite and automation tool.
• Ftfplan - an attempt at a distributed project planning tool.
• Log Processor - tool to make writing a set of rules to analyze log files and reliably determine PASS/FAIL/WARN etc. status.
• Refdb - store a three level hash table of data in text merge friendly flat files while being easily editable with gnumeric including preserving fonts, colors and other formating.
• stml - a fairly easy to use web application framework written in Chicken Scheme. Supports MVC, needs only cgi support from the web server. Model, view and controller can be written in 100% scheme (i.e. no HTML needed).
• Timesnitch - Tricky tool uses random sampling to help you figure out where you *really* spend your time when on the computer.
• Vector Graphics Helper - This egg, vg, strives to use ideas found in the Electronic Design Automation world such as instantiation of shapes. Used in Megatest. Functions from geolib will be moved here.
• dbi - Generic database interface, supports sqlite3, Postgresql, and Mysql.
