Programming Page

-------------------------- This page contains information about programming projects I'm working on or have worked on. It's not very extensive at the moment, but I am working on that.

Snake Oil Virtual Motorsports Lubricants

A compact Python library for building the simulated drivers of simulated race cars.

Xeduler page

Frustrated with the tools I found for scheduling jobs on clusters (and anywhere), I decided to create my own system that stresses elegance, simplicity, no exotic dependencies, and ease of configuration. The result is Xeduler.

Geometry Gadget

The Geometry Gadget is a big project I have been working on for years. This page provides a tutorial for the general purpose programming language I developed to drive the system.

vmaster page

This program calculates 2d views of simplified 3d object sets. It has a very flexible data format, a powerful hidden line removal routine and many features.

gradu page

This program is is a simple yet flexible 2d vector graphics dump program. It is based on the GNU plotutils and is designed to make Unix people happy. If you have a collection of 2d points and you just need to pipe them out to a grapic (X, gif, png, ps) then this might help.

numbfile.v2.tgz [Version 2]

This is a program that I wrote which takes a collection of arbitrarily named files and renames them into a nice neat list based on some kind of number pattern. It is a very powerful and thorough demonstration of the power of the bash shell. If you would like more details about what this program does, have a look at the man page. The complete program package with executable, man page and README is only 4.5 KILObytes.
Finally fixed! I have finally revised this program to work with bash v.2.
This tar file contains 3 files and they're not in their own directory. Sorry about that. You'll manage.
