Welcome to Geoff's Webpage

This mostly software I have written. It all comes with no guarantee whatever, but it did work at some time!

Most of the software uses Tcl/Tk which is a platform independent operating system interface. It makes it possible to write graphical software for Windows painlessly. It is free and included in many Linux distributions and in OSX on Macs. If you do not have it download it from ActiveState or The Tcl/Tk Website

• Weather

  For my retirement present I was given a weather station. The readings taken in my garden for the past two years are on the website of my local village.

• Digital Photography

  I use gthumb to organise and index my photographs and several of the pieces of software here relate to this.

  • See a whole directory of photographs at a glance, including exif data and place and keywords used in gthumb; embed place and keywords into jpeg file.
  • Select and sort photographs into order and rename so a slideshow follows this order.
  • Gimp plug-in to label photos using data from gthumb.
  • Gimp plug-in to remove black or white spots from photographs
  • Gimp plug-in to restore faded slides.

• Music Download

  Download copies of the BBC radio 3 'Listen Again' files.

• Compilers

  New Forest Basic and New Forest C were written to teach programming to physicists.

• Navigator Program

  When navigating in the car I got fed up with having to refold a large map or always being on the edges of the two pages in a book. Hence I wrote a program that provides continuous scrolling across big areas.

• Miscellaneous Software

  • A year planner
  • A Sudoku solver.
  • The HP35 calculator.
  • A Paving Design program.
  • A Gas Simulation program.
