Some of my other software projects

Copyright © 2007-2008 by Zack Smith

Over the years I've begun a large number of software projects, many now defunct, but here are a few of my current ones.

  • bandwidth: a benchmark for Linux to determine key bandwidths of a computer system including L1 and L2 caches; main memory; and framebuffer memory.
  • xviewraw: a somewhat-broken a Xlib-based viewer and converter for RAW photographs that is based on David Coffins dcraw code.
  • font2bdf.c: Linux console font to BDF converter.
  • Anglify: my program for translating various languages to English.
  • Table: which is an unfinished set of command-line programs to treat HTML tables like database tables. Tables can be in files or piped.
  • xpm-to-psf converter from font character images to PSF font format. Included with MonoConsole font.
  • My BDF Adobe font to PSF Linux console font converter that lets you use common X fonts like Courier 12 point on the console.
  • My free Windows and MSDOS software.
  • Econ: an economic system simulator. (No support yet for fractional reserve lending.)


Good software that I did not write

  • Ted: a very decent WYSIWYG word processor for RTF files; requires about 8 megs of RAM to run.
  • Dillo: a web browser that requires 8 megs of RAM to run.

Linux-related utilities

These help in installing Linux on older machines. I'm putting them here as a safeguard against the eventuality of their disappearing everywhere else.

Windows-related utilities

Likewise, I'm putting these here as a safeguard against the eventuality of their disappearing everywhere else.
