Items

.NET Build System Plugins
Platforms: >= .NET 2.0
Desc: Various .NET build system plugins. Actually, I have a bunch I need to roll in. Right now it just includes a CruiseControl.NET labeller that pulls its information from assembly version attributes typically found in a VersionInfo file. Here's the documentation
blackbox
Platforms: Linux
Desc: Need to make custom external controls for your PC? Here are instructions and code for making a custom RS-232 device that supports programable buttons and lights. Build your device, connect it to an unused serial port (typically /dev/ttyS0 or /dev/ttyS1 on Linux), derive your own class, compile, link, run and presto!!! Visual notification of new e-mail? Remoted shutdown button of that server that's really hard to get to behind your desk and burried in cables and what not? Now you can!

I have an implementation using 2 buttons and 1 LED. Button 2 doesn't do anything but button 1, when pressed, will launch a user specified application and, when released, will kill the application. Also includes an application that can be used to turn LED's on and off from other processes. Binaries available for
cm17a
Platforms: Linux, Windows 2000/XP
Desc: x10 Firecracker command line utility and supporting classes. Issues cm17a commands to your x10 devices. I developed this so I could schedule (via windows Task Scheduler or Linux cron) lights to turn on and off while I'm not home. Binaries available for:
IpManager
Platforms: Windows 2000, Windows XP
