What this site is
This site will contain software written by me and my
friends. Right now it will be shryke.sourceforge.net till
disputes with my domain shryke.org are resolved. All
projects here are open source, and distributed under the
GPL license. If the license isn't included in a
program on this site, please see
http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html to obtain the
license. All software on this site is distributed with no
warranty of any kind. Software written by me (Richard
Bates aka ShRyKe) is usually for educational purposes of
my own, and made public just for the chance that they
may be useful to someone else.
NOTE: The sites design
will stay simple, I'd like people that use lynx to be
able to view it, and all browsers. If any browser doesn't
load this page right, please let me know. "not right" != ugly btw
Ruby Update (rupdate)
It is a simple script written in the
Ruby programming
language. Its purpose is to help keep up with new
software releases for those of us who install by
source, and don't use *in my opinion, gay* binary packages. It
was designed for an LFS system, but should be
useful/functional
for various distros, custom or not. At the time, and
unless I get urged otherwise, the program will never
install anything on its own, it will simply let you
know their is an update, and where you can obtain the new
version. I think auto installing any software is a
possible security risk, therefore I don't plan on
implementing that as a feature of this program. If it
is requested enough that I add it, and it is a package
that LFS covers, it will install according to the
latest release of the LFS book. The program is no where near
complete, anyone familiar, or not and willing to learn,
ruby is welcome to help. In its current version, as far
as I can tell it is completely usable however, I'm
still waiting for bug reports and feature requests before I
really dedicate more time finishing it. Given, there's
a lot of programs still to be added.
rahb-dconvert(rahb-dconvert.rb)
Simple script using FLTK bindings with ruby. Converts ascii to
hex/binary/decimal. Written mainly to get a feel for fltk with ruby,
nothing fancy. If you have FLTK, ruby, and ruby-fltk (the bindings),
give it a try.
