Code

I've only had a very small amount of formal education in computer programming, but I've been teaching myself quite a bit, using the wonderful knowledge pool provided by free and open source software. And some books.

I'm focusing currently on Lisp (mainly of the Emacs variety) and Python.

I'm a Debian Mantainer, and have started my application to go further as a Debian Developer. For packages, I maintain xword and planner-el.

Many smaller hacks and ideas will just be posted on the Journal.

• xword: I maintain the Debian package for xword, the GNU/Linux crossword puzzle program written by Bill McCloskey. You can do crossword puzzles in the format distributed by the New York Times and others with it.
• delicious-el : An Emacs client for the del.icio.us social bookmark server. Features include posting, searching posts (by tag and regexp), offline/batched posting, tab completion for tags, offline storage of posts (good for backing up your account), w3m export, and HTML feed fetching.
• PlannerMode: An Emacs planning mode. I'm the current maintainer. Keep track of your to-do lists, appointments and notes inside Emacs. It includes nifty features like the ability to publish your planner pages to HTML and create wiki-style hyperlinks in Emacs buffers for fluid organization.
