Over the years I've started a lot of projects. Most of the time, after they reach some minimal state of usefulness to me, I don't polish them up, finish them off, add documentation, and share them with the world. They just sit on my server somewhere.

Today I decided to put several of those semi-forgotten projects on github for others to browse and possibly use. They're a little half-baked, and that's a little embarrassing, but maybe someone will find them useful, amusing, or educational.

Here's a list of the stuff:

grout can fetch an authentication token for Google web services and use it to make authenticated requests

gridlock is for working with Google Spreadsheets

firehose can post to Blogger (I use it for the Movie Charts blog)

linebreaker turns a blob of text into a set of lines that fit into a particular width

page-ranges is for producing result pagination links for websites

format-time is like cl:format but for timestamp strings

but for timestamp strings geometry is for woking with points and rectangles

vectometry adds a layer to vecto that uses abstract objects for rectangles, points, and colors instead of vecto's default low-level stuff

usenet-legend is a rewrite of my Erik Naggum Usenet article search system to be adaptable to other authors

wfcomp is a simple C program that can composite PNGs, JPEGs, and blocks of solid colors into a single image. Not Lisp, but I use it to produce output for the Lisp-powered AutoMotivator.

I hope to add more projects soon. I also hope to migrate my more-baked projects like Skippy, ZPNG, etc. to github over time.

Enjoy!
