New Look, Revisited
I gave up on the XML + mod_perl + other mojo, and went straight back to basics with Blosxom, a very simple and lean blogger. Plain text files, a single perl script, and a few templates give me blogging niverna.
Devil's Pie
Devil's Pie 0.2.1 is released. I'm working on Debian packages, and maybe a RH7x RPM too. For now however, tarballs are available here.A Whole New Look
A new style for a new site. I found the EFF's blog and decided to shamelessly steal their sexy stylesheet, which turns out to be Georgia Blue from Movable Type. Thus, this site is very XHTML + CSS2 heavy, so if you don't have a modern browser you're missing out on the goodies. I also advise the Microsoft Web Fonts, and a browser capable of anti-aliasing. However, if you have a fetish for Lynx at least the content will be in a reasonable order...
Anyway I should introduce some of the content on this site...
I am writing a program to find and act upon windows as they are created in X. Basically, its a re-implementation of the Matched Windows concept in Sawfish, for Metacity. Version 0.2, the first release, will be available soon.
I run Debian Sid on my IBM ThinkPad X22. Read how I did it here.
My GNOME2 theme is on the GNOME2 screen shots site, and unfortunately I had my email address showing in a window... I am currently packaging the parts I have made (and finding the originals of the parts I stole) into a sane state, and will upload it here.
Recently I have been playing with the GTK+ 2 bindings for Python. I have written a few little toys and one of the good things which resulted was a GtkTreeModel which can look just like a regular Python list to the developer. Recent advances in the bindings may mean that this is redundant now, but it can be downloaded from here.
