Subject:  [VOICENWS] SW: New software releases (sort of)

From: cockeatcatherders.com 


I have several mostly completed programming projects that simply won't be
released this year due to scheduling and health problems, so I'm going to
do something unusual. Now available on Mikes Notebook are some short
descriptions of projects, along with links to the source code. If you want
to hack around with them, they're yours. 

I'll answer questions on a 'time available' basis via email. With the
exception of W3F, these projects aren't particularly complex - I would
classify them as 'quick hacks'. I'm releasing them because I suspect they
could be useful to others. 

1) The W3F HTML/PHP/MySQL file archive system. I had originally planned to
release this project as open source freeware when I completed it, but when
I posted a message in the php newsgroup, no one was interested. There's
one major function (area delete) unwritten, and a few messed up links in
the menu structure, but it works pretty well. (You can see it on
catherders). It's not documented. 

2)Thumbkin - The image catalog thumbnailer. This is mainly a rexx front
end for "Montage", available from hobbes. If you take a look at the photo
galleries on catherders, you'll see what it does. This needs to be
documented, and it could probably stand to have a user interface... 

3) Treesync is a high-speed directory tree synchronizer. I originally
wrote it because I move my project files (80K+ files) from my laptop to my
desktop and back again on a weekly basis. Prerequisites to using it are:
Access to a MySQL server, RexxSQL, and RexxBos.  This needs to be
documented, and it should be more extensively tested than I have given it
to date.

Due to the amazing (and disgusting) amount of unsolicited email  (spam) we
have been receiving, site-wide email filters have been  installed at
catherders.com. Exact details of how this has been  configured will not be
disclosed (I don't want the darned spammers  to figure workarounds), but I
will say that mail from .tw and .kr  domains is bounced without exception.
If this makes PacRim folks  unhappy, get those open relays fixed, folks!
