Misc. junk
This section mostly contains junk that noone will ever be interested in, but I put it up here anyways. Have a look around and see if you are interested in anything, and if you are, let me know.

This is only part of all the junk scripts I have lying around, and some of the others may show up here if I ever get the time to get them online.

 
bmptogif.sh
bmptogif.sh - Script that converts bitmaps to GIF.
 
getpics.sh
getpics.sh - A small script to fetch pictures from a Kodak CX-4230
 
giftogif.sh
giftogif.sh - small script that fixes bad gif compressions from Electric Eyes among other programs.
 
mkthumb.sh
mkthumb.sh - A small script to create thumbnails out of images, together with a index.html file.
 
netpoll.sh
netpoll.sh - Automatic ping program that determines connections state.
 
scaleimage.sh
scaleimage.sh - Small script that scales images to a uniform size.
 
acpiinfo.sh
acpiinfo.sh - A small script to get information out of the /proc filesystem, and to output it in a readable form on the screen.
 
keepalive.sh
keepalive.sh - Another small script to keep your internet connection alive in an semi intelligent way, in case there are scripts on your Internet Service Provider that disconnects you, unless you are watching homepages of some sort within specified time intervals.
 
wma2mp3.sh
wma2mp3.sh - A small script that converts all .wma files into mp3 in the current working directory. Note that this requires mplayer with windows media support to be installed on the machine.
 
multissh.sh
multissh.sh - A script to ssh to several hosts and run commands on each host. This is very good if you have things you want to check on all hosts in your network.
 
multiscp.sh
multiscp.sh - A script to scp a file to several hosts. This can be used for updates etcetera that you wish to put on several machines at the same time.
 
netpoll.sh
netpoll.sh - A small script to log up and downtime of your Internet connection, or local network, or you choose. Don't forget to configure the host that you ping.
 
ta-rules.txt
ta-rules.txt - A simple iptables ruleset for playing Total Annihilation. Has been proven to work with the Phoenix Worx servers. This should also work with most other DirectPlay7 and 8 programs. Be warned, this opens up huge amounts of ports to your internal machines!
 
testssh.sh
testssh.sh - Another script that tests what version of SSH is running on all hosts in a network. E.g., does it take SSH v1, v2 or none at all.
