This is a little Automator action to import one or more files and folders into iPhoto albums of the same name. Just dragging items on iPhoto or importing from iPhoto results in all photos to be imported into one roll.

The changes I made to LTI-Lib were integrated into the latest version (1.9.15). The library now compiles happily on your OS X system by simply using the familiar ./configure && make && make install sequence.

The LTI-Lib is an object oriented library with algorithms and data structures frequently used in image processing and computer vision. It has been developed at the Chair of Technical Computer Science (Lehrstuhl fuer Technische Informatik) LTI at the Aachen University of Technology, as part of many research projects in computer vision dealing with robotics, object recognition and sing language and gesture recognition.

My first attempt at writing a program with pyObjC; not more than a small example. pyDict reads locally stored dictionary files and allows the user to query the dictionaries. pyDict doesn't require a dictionary server. It uses dictdlib (included) from John Goerzen.

sms_send is a small command line tool to send a short message via an IrDA or Bluetooth GSM phone. It has no GUI, so basic terminal experience is required. It is mainly useful for scripts, e.g. to send an alert message in case of a server error.

Xsql is a small tool for Mac OS X to send SQL queries to a local or remote Postgresql, Oracle or MySQL database server and to display and/or save the results. Output can be viewed either tab-delimited (for export to Microsoft Excel or similar applications) or in a table format.
