About Me 🗽

Hi. I'm a software engineer from the USA. I'm into hacking, art, and music. Some of my main programming languages are Python, C, C++, Bash and JavaScript. This is where I keep some of my programming projects.

Projects

ASCII Art and Textmode Graphics:

• Durdraw - Animated Unicode, ANSI and ASCII Art Editor for Linux/Unix/macOS
• Gifterm - Image and animated .GIF viewer for text consoles. Linux/Mac/Windows (kind of)

Desktop Linux/X11:

• Emojam - A lightweight Emoji picker/keyboard for X-Windows on Linux and Unix-like systems. (Gtk)
• Synaptweak - GUI app for changing Synaptics Touchpad Driver settings in Linux (Qt)

Games and toys:

• Acronymph - Acromania-like acronym game for IRC
• cpong - A simpe pong-like ASCII game for Unix. My first "real" C program, decades ago. Be kind.
• OpenGL Toys - Some OpenGL demos I made a long time ago (C, GLUT)

Other:

• X10 Pyro - Web interface to X10 Firecracker (RS-232) wireless home automation module (Python + Flask)
• stract - Extract a range of bytes from binary files by specifying the first and last byte offsets (in decimal or hex)
• iPhone-TTS - Objective-C wrapper and port of Festival Lite text-to-speech engine to iPhone OS. This was used for adding text-to-speech capability to early iPhone apps. (old, historical) (C, Objective-C, iOS)
