Scripts, programs and random snippets of code. Everything here is my own work, and is provided with absolutely no warranty — use at your own risk!

Applications

• Ryder → A macho name generator for OS X, inspired by Mystery Science Theatre 3000.

Scripts

• backuplogs → The name gives it away. A simple script I use to back up my IRC logs.

• t4rd → Make any text l33t.

• Simple palindrome test

• yoinklog → Scans IRC logs for links to images, dumping them to standard output. Supports plaintext and HTML output.

• neo → My first ever shell script, posted here for posterity/embarrassment (delete as appropriate).

Bash snippets

• Create thumbnails for a folder full of images:

  mkdir -p .tn
  ls *.{jpg,gif,png} | xargs -i convert {} -size 150x150 \
    -resize 150x150 .tn/{}

• Last played song on Last.fm:

  lynx -dump "ws.audioscrobbler.com/1.0/user/USERNAME/recenttracks.txt" \
    | head -n1 | cut -d',' -f2

• IRSSI kick logs:

  grep -whorE '[^ ]* was kicked from [^ ]* by .*' ~/irclogs

  To leave out the kick messages, change .* to [^ ]*

Stuff for Netsoc users

• checksigs → Check your sigs file for any lines that are too long for hey.
