These little open source tools were coded when I needed a specific solution for a specific task so they are very minimal and focused on only one thing. They are mostly quick hacks that I put together fast, so the code is not very beautiful or optimized.
They are all released with the full source, under the GPL. If you make changes or enhace the tools I'd love to have a copy.
