Scripts and More

October 27, 2002

I wrote a couple quick utilities this weekend. The first one is here; it allows you to write C as if it was a scripting language. Something like this, for example:

#!/usr/bin/env cex

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
  printf("foo\n");
  return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

It's a total hack, but it's still kind of entertaining. Anyway, the second utility is just a Procmail log colorizer. That's available here.

Random stuff. Here's an article about the worst roommate in the world. Here is a huge list of card tricks (I just bought a deck of cards a few days ago, and Alonzo was showing me some magic tricks he knew). Here are patches for the NVidia kernel driver so it will work under the 2.5 kernel (I haven't tried them yet). Looks like Stephen had a change of faith. I got an early birthday present from my dad and stepmom: a Lian Li PC61 case! I haven't set it up yet, but here's a picture of Alonzo checking it out, and here is a picture of it on it's own. Finally, here's my random picture of the day (posted in #gah by JeopardE):
