Useful Stuff


My stuff

Here's some Perl scripts I wrote that I found usefull or funny. I'm a beginer in Perl so it's sometimes very ugly for some people. They're all released under the GNU General Public License.
  • radiofg.pl 0.0.1 is a CGI script that takes the radio fg's playlist, and display the curent song if its still playing.
  • dicobot.pl 0.0.1 gets the definition from a french word (by asking the french Hachette online dictionnary) and prints it on the standard output.
    You can also have a look on this tool which does the same kind of work as dicobot : hdico.
  • scan_rpm.pl 0.2.0 scans your rpm database and gives you missing files and files that should not be there. This is particulary useful, if you upgraded your system instead of re-install it, to check if there's some old files which were not deleted.

Other stuff

Here's some other stuff, that I didn't write and beleave are really useful.

Disk, Files

  • fdupes is a program for identifying or deleting duplicate files residing within specified directories. Useful when you want to clean your hard drive.
  • mp3dup looks for duplicate files in recursively parsed directories. mp3dup can also find files that are equal for the first, or last N bytes. Files with identical ID3-tags can also be found.
  • dus is a Recursive Disk Usage Sorter. Useful for finding large files or groups of files in a directory or partition.
  • A utility Script that parse and format the output from 'du', to quickly see large directory.

Web

  • Bookmarker converts a Netscape bookmark file (or part of one if desired) into a Yahoo-like tree of web pages.
  • Pisg is an IRC channel statics generator written in Perl, it creates statistics out from different logfile formats.

Ressources

  • Dams' .emacs (Warning: if you're using Emacs 21, you will have to change some stuff in this file).
  • Dams' .icewm makes your IceWM look purified, with only the essential. Take a look at this mini-HOWTO to know how to use it.
