I have programmed a lot of different languages and operating
systems over the years... assembly language on an ancient
IBM mainframe, FORTRAN on a bizarre 36-bit Honeywell, SNOBOL
on a DEC-20, REXX on an Amiga... I even learned TECO once.
(Ah, the memories. Will anyone wax nostalgic someday about
good old .Net?)
Back in those Good Old Days of the 20th Century, I wrote a
bunch of freeware and shareware for the
Amiga.
This page lets anyone who
still uses one of those download any or all of it, including
source code. It includes Amiga versions of the Info-Zip
Group's Zip and Unzip tools, since I was (and
occasionally still am) a contributor to that group, and
maintained the Amiga port.
Coming soon: When I was a student, my very first "big"
software project was an old-school text adventure game called
Lugi. It was pretty silly, and fun. Recently
I dug it up and began porting it into Java... then while I was
at it, started making a parallel version in C#.Net. The
two versions can be kept tightly in sync, because the languages
are so similar. Each can be run with multiple choices of
IO interface: as a command-line program, as a web application,
or in the Java case, as an applet that puts a fake command-line
window in your browser. That latter form, at the very
least, will be available here once it's complete and debugged.
...Okay, to be honest, now that I'm employed full time again
this is probably coming not-so-soon. (This page used to
be where I featured my résumé and shit... under
those circumstances, naturally, projects like Lugi.Net
got a lot more attention.)
