scripToys

What you will find here is a collection of shell scripts, python scripts and little C programs which make my life easier. Maybe you can benefit, too, maybe not. I am not proud of these toys, many are neither documented nor bug-free. Coding style varies between sluggish and freakish. But they suit my needs. I will eventually clean them up a bit, but don't count on it. This is work in progress. Help yourselves.

All work herein is GPL'ed.
