Inspired by Acme::Bleach, here’s Bleach for Python.

1. Save the bleach codec in Python/Lib/Encodings/. The codec can also be used as a command-line filter for source code:

   python bleach.py < my_source.py > bleached_source.py

2. Run a bleached program, such as Hello, world.

It’s 3:40, so the code is not the cleanest imaginable.

Exactly what it says on the tin.

EDIT: Seems that PuTTY always tries a web browser, instead of delegating the URL to the OS to manage, so here’s a workaround (200 KiB), RunArg, which is a trivially simple program to just open the given parameter using the Windows shell. Source code for both the [...]

So I wrote a little, silly Python script to turn static flourishes like this into rather attractive animations like this (link leads to Servut.us’s Dropbox) as used in so many video productions nowadays. I got the idea from Video Copilot’s Evolution, btw.
Anyway, here’s the code. It requires Python 2.5 or newer and PIL, the Python [...]

Inspired by this xkcd strip (and via maraz), here is a World Wakeup Map! (Or rather, a world map which tells you where in the world the clock is X).
Tested with Firefox 3. YMMV.

Okay, I said I wouldn’t post often, but look at me go.
Another audio-related piece of software, Methlab (more of a pun on the well-known math software than anything else… honest!) is an expression evaluator for audio. What that means is that it allows you to apply a piece of script to any sample you come [...]

Midity is a simple joystick to MIDI mapper for Windows written in C (and Lua).
Simply put, it allows you to use any joystick, gamepad, dance pad or anything that Windows recognizes as a joystick as a MIDI controller. This includes the Nintendo Wiimote, if you have the right software (PPJoy and GlovePie). I wrote it [...]

So I decided to install WordPress. Don’t expect me to post often, but I thought I’d best publish some of the more or less random projects I tend to do. Expect some soon.
