Generate a few Random Housing Development Names.
Okay. This was original created with a simplistic shell script and some common utils. But that was _slooow_. Enter Imlib.
So now there is a small C program to do this. It is available at the SuperFuzz page.
This is the original version, done via shell. Take a look if you want.
A slight variation of the same idea. This time passed through a pnmflip -ccw.
If your also bored, you can get the shell script to do it.
Need pbmplus, xloadimage, and imagemagick to use it. And yes, I know I convert to jpeg and convert right back. Strangely, thats the only way i could find to force it to work on all bitdepths.
Based on some ideas from a friend, I decided to try graphing all the rpm deps in Red Hat 7.0.
The results are viewable at rpm-graph

Someone_else: cool, you could put messges in their...
Adrian: yeah, putting news headlines would be a 10 minute hack...
Adrian: hmmm....
3 hours later...Shell script to scroll argv[1] on the title bar of the xterm its ran in.
And theres even two versions! Of course, they should be merged, but I'm lazy and the novelty has worn off.
xtscrollonce scrolls something once. xtscroll does it forever.
Just a test to figure out how the ext VFS in mc works.
A land ripe for stupid hacks
And no, it doesnt update as you change stuff on the desktop.
ls.themes.org The themes thing was getting out of hand. Be sure to check out the gallery
Linux Portal Standards Base At the time, the portal thing was also getting out of hand. Pre .com bust, of course. Check out the spec and the test suite.
They Seemed funny at the time. I swear.
The results are kind of interesting if your into that sort of thing
The code and some examples are available on the sortpal page.
In addition, I sometimes post things to aklikins.deviantart.com
