Software for download written by me
There are some software what I have written through the years. Some of them are for my personal use, so it may be that there is no any use of them for other folks. But take a look, all of them are free, so you can use, modify and redistribute them under the terms stated in the license included in each package file named LICENSE. Please read it. YOU MUST AGREE THAT LICENSE IN ORDER TO USE ANY SOFTWARE DOWNLOADED OR OTHERWISE FETCHED FROM THIS SITE!
Packages are packed using tar archiver, and then compressed using gzip compression program. These are common tools in Unix environment, so there is no guarantee that you can open those files if you are using some exotic operating environment. Each package contains sourcecode and ready-to-run binary executable for i386 Linux unless otherwise noted.
Any questions, comments, feedback, or if you just want to talk about these programs should be written to jani ät lasipalatsi piste fi. Piste means dot. All other addresses are defunct. Please note that I do not support these programs but Tellu in any way. You may ask for installation help for example, but it is not guaranteed that I can possibly help. But still, you can always ask.

Bin2asm
Bin2asm is a console program to convert binary files in assembler source format. This is something I have written in a hurry for my own needs, so it should not be taken too serious. Useable only for assembler programmers.
Operating environment
Developed and tested on Linux kernel version 2.4.27 and NASM version 0.98.38. With little trouble it is possible to port Bin2asm to run on other operating systems as well, as it does not use any libraries.
Requires
· Assembler (nasm syntax) compiler
· i386 processor

CPU Speed
CPU Speed is a tiny (executable size is 680 bytes) console program to measure CPU speed. This is something I have written in a hurry for my own needs, so it should not be taken too serious. Useable only for educational purposes.
Operating environment
Developed and tested on Linux kernel version 2.4.27 and NASM version 0.98.38. With little trouble it is possible to port CPU Speed to run on other operating systems as well, as it does not use any libraries.

FVWM Browse
FVWM Browse is a simple perl program to create dynamic menues from disk files (eg. pictures) just like file manager programs does. Each file can be then selected from dynamic menu, and the file in question opens in corresponding application (jpeg images in xv, for example), much like when you double click on file in file manager window. FVWM Browse recurses into subdirectories too, but certain directories can be skipped and prevented its content to be listed in menu by creating empty file named '.nofvwmbrowse' in that directory.
Operating environment
Developed and tested on FVWM version 2.5.8, Linux kernel version 2.4.27, Perl version 5.8.0 and XFree86 version 4.4.0, but works on any Unix like operating system for sure.
Requires
· FVWM window manager
· Perl compiler
· X Window System

Horncalc
Horncalc is simple fullrange horn loudspeaker calculator. It can be used to calculate loudspeaker's horn throat and mouth areas and compression chamber volume based on driver parameters.
Operating environment
Developed and tested on gcc version 4.1, Linux kernel version 2.6.18, Motif version 2.1 and X.org version 7.3 but there is a good chance that it works on other Unices as well, as it does not do anything tricky.
Requires
· C compiler
· Motif include files and runtime libraries
· X Window System

Oops!
Oops! is a very simple popup reminder application. It pops up a window with desired message at the time you set. By default Oops! forks itself to the background, as well it detaches itself from the controlling tty, so terminal window where it was started can be immediately closed without 'You have running jobs' error message. It also changes current directory to the directory root '/', so if started from over the network, network filesystem can be unmounted afterwards while Oops! is running.
Operating environment
Developed and tested on gcc version 2.95.3, Linux kernel version 2.4.27, Motif version 2.1 and XFree86 version 4.4.0 but there is a good chance that it works on other Unices as well, as it does not do anything tricky.
