Welcome

This site holds a collection of applications and utility programs that I have written through the years. Feel free to browse and see if you find anything of interest. Most, if not all of the applications are released under the GNU General Public License, version 2 or version 3.

For updates and comments on my work, please visit my blog. For easy access to relevant source code, I have accounts at github and sourceforge.

These projects take up a lot of time, and I'm working on them all by myself. So if you find them useful, and have some money to spare, feel free to donate some to my development efforts. Any amount will be appreciated. Also, if you have any non-trivial feature request for my apps, that can also be discussed together with a donation. (Of course, you can request features without donating, but then I can't make any promises...)
