Some thoughts I may have had, and was foolish enough to write down.

Projects

These are the projects I keep myself busy with in my free time. Some may be old, all might be badly written and one or two might be useful. They are not sorted in order of importance, popularity or size.

yoshi-theme   Theme Elisp

A theme named after my cat. I needed a name and couldn't think of one, he doesn't actually look anything like this theme, for example: He doesn't have so much text all over him.

sti   Bash

A stupid little tool installer. For the little scripts that don't belong in a package manager, do belong in VCS, but shouldn't take too long to set up.

cdispass   Conkeror JavaScript

A Conkeror interface for DisPass. Input your passphrases directly into web forms, no need to copy/paste them.

dispass.el   Elisp

An Emacs wrapper for DisPass, quite handy but destroys all your security.

git-auto-commit-mode   Elisp

Automatically commit changes to git after each save. Handy for certain types of documents, which don't need long commit messages, but should be stored on each revision.

gitto   Guile Scheme

An application to get an overview of the state of your repositories.

mode-icons   Elisp

An emacs module that shows an icon instead of the major mode's name in some cases.

ogi   Elisp

An org-mode interface to github issues, not very complete yet, but at least it can grab some issues for you, I think.

baps1   C

A simple PS1 formatting utility. Doesn't do a lot yet, but does it a hell of a lot faster than the PHP script it replaced. (I hope)

Defunct

I have stopped working on these projects for various reasons.

Eye on Manga   Maemo C

I kept forgetting which manga to buy, or more accurately, which I already have, so I wrote a Maemo application to help me remember.

Note: I have stopped working on this project because I have switched phones, which uses a different language and different GUI toolkit. I'll have to rewrite this at some point.

more

I have other projects around here too. Not sure if you would be interested in that, though.

Configuration

• I have put a work-in-progress literate Emacs configuration up (once again) for anyone who may be interested in such a thing.
• I've also put my Mailcap file here. It's tiny and uninteresting, but it was easy to make literate.

Profiles

I'm often trying out new websites and services on the internet. Especially if they have something to do with code. Here are some of them.

• I put most of my projects' code to github.
• A few of my occasional contributions are tracked by Ohloh.

Some other interests

Next to pure coding there are some other things that I find interesting, mostly also relating to coding or otherwise computers.

• I am currently reading Art of Assembly Language, 2nd Edition, The Web Application Hacker's Handbook, 2nd Edition and The Ruby on Rails Tutorial (for Rails 3.2). Other books I have read include: The C Programming Language, On Lisp, Practical Common Lisp, Pro Git, Seven Languages in Seven Weeks, Land of Lisp, Loving Common Lisp, or the Savvy Programmer's Secret Weapon, Dive into HTML5, Head First C, Head First Design Patterns, Autotools, Professional WordPress Plugin Development, Lisp for the Web
• I use the Fantasque Sans Mono¹ font for my terminal emulator and text editor. Other fonts I've used or tried include: DejaVu Sans Mono, Envy Code R, Liberation Mono, Source Code Pro, PT Mono
• I use the Awesome window manager. Some others I have used or tried include: dwm, Notion, Guile-WM, Stumpwm, herbstluftwm

Other forms of communication

• Read a little about me.
