   Software I've Written

Diversions
   My Amazon.com Wishlist
   Wine

Always being curious and attempting to be resourceful, I've written several applications, patches, and utilities for a variety of reasons ranging from curiousity to outright annoyance with the lack of a particular feature.

If you find this software useful, or would like to express your appreciation and support for my work, please consider buying something for me off of my Amazon.com wishlist. Several thousand people download software I've written from this site every month, and almost nobody has ever bothered with a thank you, let alone a contribution from my wish list. Please consider that many of us write free software because of a love for the community and an enjoyment of the challenge -- a large part of the motivation to continue writing and improving software comes from kkowing that it's appreciated.

Perl Software
A page dedicated to just my Perl coding efforts, including a full SMTP server for Perl (SMTP::Server). Go over there and visit, and see what interesting things my twisted mind can conjure up in Perl. :)
QuickAccess
QuickAccess allows you to easily access your Quicken data from Excel. I got so frustrated with not being able to automagically import some of my Quicken data into Excel, that late one night, after getting extremely frustrated at having to open Quicken, cut and past numbers constantly into Excel, and then recalculate my numbers, that I sat down, had a nice shot of my favorite whiskey, and wrote this little baby.
Act! to Outlook Converter
A little utility I wrote to convert Act! contact data into Outlook 98
Netscape - Outlook Mail Plugin
A plugin that allows you to send mail using Outlook from within Netscape when you click on a mailto URL.
ProFTPD
This neat, up and coming project is patterned after Apache. I'm currently the developer and maintainer of ProFTPD. ProFTPD features Apache-style configuration, as well as a focus on security, flexibility and scalability.
HTTPTunnel
My RPM distribution of httptunnel with some added convinience and security features.
