Me: Barry Carter (carter.barry@gmail.com) GOAL: My primary goal is to clutter up github/etc with things are only useful to me and won't benefit anyone else. My stretch goal is to clutter up github/etc with things that don't benefit anyone, not even me. Instead of keeping all of my miniscule apps in a different github, I'll put them all here for now. If any of them grows big enough, I'll create a new github for it. I realize I don't have to start my script names with "bc-", but I do it just to annoy people (including myself). NOTE: geonames.db is used by scripts here, but is NOT in this repo. Instead, find it at: http://geonames.db.94y.info/ (click "Raw SQLite3 db" to download the whole thing in SQLite3 format: it's about 1.1G) Summary: bclib.pl: A library of useful functions aliases.txt: useful aliases bc-get-peanuts.pl: demonstrates how to create an Amazon Kindle compatible MOBI book from Peanuts comics strips bots.txt: user agents for common bots bc-mol.pl: sends postal mail (not email) using postedigitals API bc-dns-server.pl: generic DNS server bc-starmap.pl: generates a map of which stars/planets are visible at a given location/time bc-draw-grid.pl: draws world maps in various projections w arbitrary north/south pole using OSM slippy tiles bc-world-clock.pl: shows world time zones in an unusual way bc-mytile.pl: developer tool for google maps, showing the coordinates/ranges of each tile at http://test.barrycarter.info/gettile.php bc-extract-attachments.pl and bc-check-extract-attachments.pl: carefully removes attachments from mail folders and stores them canonically and non-redundantly (using sha1) bc-stack2wp.pl: converts my stackoverflow questions to WordPress posts playground.pl: constantly changing testbed of functions bc-approx-sun-ra-dec.m: Mathematica script that calculates solar position for next 10 years bc-sun-always-shines.pl: Uses google maps to display where it's day, night, twilight, etc gbefore.txt, gend.txt: used by bc-sun-always-shines.pl bc-voronoi-binary.pl: Uses binary search to find true 3-D Voronoi diagram of earth, but is painfully slow bc-closest-gmap.pl: tries to use qhull to find true 3-D Voronoi diagram of earth, but doesn't work yet bc-get-cycle-files.pl: obtain cycle files (weather) from NOAA sites bc-dns-server.pl: a simple Perl DNS server, template for more interesting DNS server bc-cheap-bay.pl: finds cheap available items on eBay (one penny, no shipping, no bids, expiring within 4 hours). You MUST have your own eBay API application key for this and you MUST put it in /usr/local/etc/ebay.id. Requires curl and tidy bc-temperature-voronoi.pl: creates an SVG map from temperature data using qhull/qdelaunay/qvoronoi (currently static, hope to make it live) bc-geonames2sqlite.pl: converts geonames data to a semi-efficient SQLite3 db bc-cityfind.pl: Given a string, attempt to find matching city (placename) in geonames db box-option-value.m: Mathematica computations for value of box and binary options (nadex.com, oanda.com) Disclaimer: A lot of this stuff is crappy but I'm putting it here with the hopes of improving it (either myself or w/ help). None of this should be considered a finished product, or even beta test software. Some of this stuff contains obvious errors. This really is just "first cut", "proof of concept", "show and tell" code. In other words: no making fun of me, and no judging me on this stuff. If I ever come out of retirement and you hire me, my work isn't normally this crappy. Captioned: These files are open captioned for humor-impaired. The XML tag {h} indicates itentional humor. Things I want to learn about git: - Search all files, past and present, for given phrase (git-grep does NOT do this) - Checkout all versions of a given file - Checkout the entire tree as separate directories - diff between edited-uncommitted version and last committed version
