Other Peoples Code
Other People's Code
I take Larry Wall's ideas on what makes a good programmer very
seriously so I steal as much code as I can. Sometimes I make direct
use of it, sometimes I look at it and decide I can't do anything
useful with it and somtimes I like the idea but need a slightly
different implementation. It occurred to me recently that I should
not just discard those bits and pieces that didn't get used but should
instead gather together all those that I work on or examine closely so
that others might get a chance to see them and use them and also to
advertise the originators a little. Unfortunately not everyone puts a
name or address inside the code so some of the code here is now
anonymous. My intention is to only include code here that is free in
the Debian sense which, if I am not mistaken, means in essence that it
is either public domain or released under the Gnu Public License
(GPL). If anyone feels that I have included code that should not be
included please let me know whether it is because it is yours and you
want it back or because you can tell me that it isn't free. To find
the code browse the sitemap. The program that produced the sitemap
isn't very good but it does show the layout and it is under
development so it might be better next time you look.
