What is this and who are you?
My name is Roger Dunce and I'm a Software Engineer. You'll find a few pieces of software here that I have written in my spare time that I have deemed decent and useful enough to release. They're mainly small but useful utilities that I'm sure other people will find useful.

 

wmgtemp
Overview:
wmgtemp is a dock app for WindowMaker that graphically displays the CPU and SYS temperatures using the lm_sensors package. As of 0.6 all chipset feature detection is dynamic and wmgtemp may not act as it did previously. It also only works with one CPU and will have undefined behaviour with SMP systems. Let me know how it works for you =)

Version 0.8 is mainly a cleanup release and includes no new features. It integrades a couples of patches. One from Josip Rodin that includes man page changes, build changes, and one from Ludwig Nussel that removes usleep and also includes build changes.

Version 0.7 adds the ability to specify the libsensors features to be used, such as "temp3" instead of "temp2", a quiet flag to suppress status information and small fix to make it compile with gcc 3.2.

Note: Because all boards are not created equal wmgtemp may get the SYS and CPU temps the wrong way round, but never fear, just add a -t or --swap flag to the command line and it will correct the problem.

    GBase
    Overview:
    GBase is a GTK program designed to convert between the four common bases used in programming (decimal, hexadecimal, octal and binary). It converts numbers on-the-fly as they are typed in. It can also convert numbers entered on the command line. It can correctly handle both signed and unsigned 32-bit integers.
    This program was jointly developed with Psiren. It's simple but it's very useful.

    There's a debian package available for this too, thanks to Josip Rodin.
