tar 1.12 autofile detection + bzip2 patch
Patches GNU tar 1.12 for working with bzip2 (the -I option),
but during decompression, autodetects if the file is compressed,
gzip'd, or bzip2'd and handles accordingly. You need
to use -R to apply this patch in reverse.
Tiny Tetris [DOS executable]
[Source]
The source is original, untouched and uncleaned for a number of years.
Could have been a lot smaller if not for some features such as scoring
and leveling.
Groovy
(temporary home, I think)
Groovy's yet another goofey client^Wfront-end.
BeroList header demunger
BeroList, a mailing list manager (not one I like), changes the
"From:" header of emails to it's own "From:" header.
This makes searching through the mailbox for a particular person a lot
harder. This is a real hack (not fully tested), that goes through your
mbox and fixes it up to show the original sender (while retaining the
"envelope sender" on the first line)
TODO: On-the-fly generic procmail'd email rewriter that demungs
BeroList, among other stuff.
Jed lib
patch
A patch to the jed
editor's slang library to match my own currently in use. This includes
a color syntaxed mail mode (good for the mutt mailer), and a
dictionary front-end
(Use Meta-E to lookup words). Based on Jed 0.98.7.
My own mutt resource file
for your comparison and study.
Brief in-the-works tips file for various Unix/X11
Fortune cookie format. Needs some work on it, and esp. the X11 ones,
need some screen shots to clarify.
Java make program (in Perl!)
Given the main source file, this recursively goes through the dependencies
and compiled the required/changed source files (assume same directory).
Forget about rewriting the dependencies in your Makefile! Use the
source, Luke!
Some of the above files are compressed using bzip2. See http://www.muraroa.demon.co.uk/ for more details.
There is a reason why there're called hacks. These programs are "quick, get the job done" programs. Mismatched comments in the code are quite common, especially since a lot are based on existing code. Not to mention bugs^H^H^H^Hundocumented features.
