Projects
Polarity reader: Some code to set up single line highlighting in emacs. This is helpful for readers with low visual acuity.
modal-key-bindings: Use a hierarchical alist to bind keys so as to allow for fast switching between layouts in emacs. Blogging within EMACS: This is a script to help you maintain a web side locally. It's really just a front end to lftp.
unaccent-dir: When mv fails with invalid argument errors because there are weird ? marks, or accented characters in file names. You can call this elisp function on the directory you where trying to move in order to clean things up.
window-stack: Create and maintain a vertical stack of windows, in collaboration with ibuffer.
Discipline: A little script for emacs that beeps when you get off task. Uses a white-list to tell which buffers are legal.
dspspy: This is a great example of why open source rocks. I have made some small changes to the dspspy surveillance(and here we see that the XO's sugar interface is still buggy, I cannot get suggestions on how to spell that word through it.) program to make it friendly for taking notes.
Lojread: This is an elisp program which I worked on a long time ago. It helps a lojban speaker, even with the most limited vocabulary and understanding of grammar, to read, and learn lojban with ease.
Ical-to-planner converter. IE, google calendar in planner!: This is a strait elisp codec which imports ical feeds into planner. You can essentially subscribe to ical feeds.
Planner cycle:Cycle between day view, week view, and month view with one key
r key hack for org-mode:A tiny script which makes it so that when you press 'r' at the beginning of a line in org-mode, it creates a *. This makes it so you don't have to reach up and press S-8.
Data hands, under desk project: This is my personal claim to fame. I use my computer underneath my desk. Right now, the pictures up there are of my old desktop, I have now retrofitted the enclosure so as to hold a laptop. I am currently working on setting up my XO to work with this so those pictures in the near future will be 3 generations old.
EMACS on the XO-1 OLPC: A guide to running emacs on the XO, and how to set it up to work well in ebook mode.
