|
||||
|
||||
the Python scripts here only work with Python 3.
|
||||
|
||||
### 360\_wasd
|
||||
|
||||
an ancient AutoHotKey script i wrote to convert the left control stick
|
||||
of a 360 controller to WASD inputs on a keyboard.
|
||||
i used it to play an equally ancient version of [The Binding of Isaac,](//store.steampowered.com/app/113200/The_Binding_of_Isaac/)
|
||||
among a couple other games.
|
||||
|
||||
it should still work fine even today, but
|
||||
you can press F10 to kill it if it starts acting up.
|
||||
|
||||
### arithmetic\_coding
|
||||
|
||||
a GPL-licensed arithmetic coding compressor and decompressor for binary strings.
|
||||
originally by [David MacKay,](http://www.inference.org.uk/mackay/python/compress/)
|
||||
this has been cleaned up (passes pycodestyle) and ported to Python 3.
|
||||
|
||||
### batch\_encoding
|
||||
|
||||
another old script. this time it's a Windows batch file for re-encoding
|
||||
videos to be suitable for online distribution.
|
||||
i don't really use this anymore, but
|
||||
it looks like i once used it for N64 videos recorded with Bizhawk.
|
||||
|
||||
it contains some advanced `compand` nonsense from before `acompressor` was a thing.
|
||||
|
||||
### batch\_font\_render
|
||||
|
||||
a zsh script to render fonts — all the otf & ttf's in a directory —
|
||||
to png's, with some good ol' Lorem Ipsum.
|
||||
it uses pango and fontconfig, so i've only tested it on \*nix.
|
||||
|
||||
i recently repurposed this script
|
||||
to render characters to bitmaps for use as textures in games,
|
||||
but i haven't uploaded that version yet.
|
||||
|
||||
### danbooru\_atomizer
|
||||
|
||||
a Python script that scrapes atom feeds on [danbooru (nsfw)](//danbooru.donmai.us/)
|
||||
and merges them into one mega-feed.
|
||||
|
||||
### danbooru\_scrape
|
||||
|
||||
another danbooru scraper, this time for batch-downloading all the images
|
||||
for a given search query. requires zsh and xml2.
|
||||
|
||||
i don't think this version works anymore,
|
||||
so i'll have to update it with my local changes sometime.
|
||||
|
||||
### desmos
|
||||
|
||||
[stuff i've plotted in desmos.](/desmos/desmos.md)
|
||||
just click the link; it's another markdown file.
|
||||
|
||||
### dictionary\_attack
|
||||
|
||||
i went looking for a dead-simple tool to
|
||||
construct random, fixed-length strings from a list of shorter strings,
|
||||
but i realized in the time i'd find something i liked,
|
||||
i could just write my own in Python.
|
||||
so that's exactly what i did!
|
||||
|
||||
beware, this is highly unoptimized, favoring simplicity over speed.
|
||||
|
||||
### dwarf\_font
|
||||
|
||||
the 8x12 bitmap font included with [Dwarf Fortress](http://www.bay12games.com/dwarves),
|
||||
alongside a [love2d](//love2d.org/) Lua script for loading it
|
||||
with all the appropriate character mappings.
|
||||
|
||||
the code is Unlicensed, and i believe the font itself is public domain.
|
||||
|
||||
### explicit\_globals
|
||||
|
||||
this probably shouldn't be here...
|
||||
|
||||
### filter\_tutorial
|
||||
|
||||
a single Python file that walks you through
|
||||
designing and plotting an IIR filter.
|
||||
requires numpy, scipy, and matplotlib.
|
||||
|
||||
### image\_deduplication
|
||||
|
||||
a Python script to find duplicate images given a hamming distance threshold.
|
||||
it employs dhash to do the heavy lifting. requires pillow and dhash.
|
||||
|
||||
it doesn't recurse into `./_duplicate/` so you can dump things there if you wish.
|
||||
|
||||
### kill\_reboot
|
||||
|
||||
does nasty stuff to Windows 10 to
|
||||
prevent updates from automatically triggering reboots.
|
||||
|
||||
the C# portion is based on [NSudo.](//github.com/M2Team/NSudo)
|
||||
the batch script exploits [a UAC bypass found by Tyranid.](//tyranidslair.blogspot.ca/2017/05/exploiting-environment-variables-in.html)
|
||||
|
||||
### kyaa
|
||||
|
||||
really *really* hacky argument-parsing macros for C programs.
|
||||
|
||||
contains [some ad-hoc documentation.](/kyaa/kyaa.md)
|
||||
|
||||
This is free and unencumbered software released into the public domain.
|
||||
|
||||
### love\_plotting
|
||||
|
||||
plotting equations with [love2d](//love2d.org/).
|
||||
it probably doesn't work on the latest version.
|
||||
|
||||
it's nothing special, and i only included it here for archival sake.
|
||||
i have a newer version locally, but it needs to be cleaned up before it can be committed.
|
||||
|
||||
### lsf
|
||||
|
||||
an awful bash script i started writing just for fun,
|
||||
left here for archival sake.
|
||||
heaven forbid you actually enjoy this program,
|
||||
please instead consider using [ls--](//github.com/trapd00r/ls--)
|
||||
or the like.
|
||||
|
||||
### mario\_tennis
|
||||
|
||||
this C program validates, brute-forces, and generates codes
|
||||
for the defunct Ring Tournament mode in Mario Tennis (N64),
|
||||
once used to hold competitions in magazines and the like.
|
||||
|
||||
### mips\_disassembler
|
||||
|
||||
an old disassembler for MIPS III binaries by spinout.
|
||||
the license is ambiguous.
|
||||
|
||||
i've since tweaked and cleaned the code. a little. not a lot.
|
||||
|
||||
### music\_sync
|
||||
|
||||
a Python script for syncing and re-encoding audio files
|
||||
for use on music players that support ogg vorbis.
|
||||
if you actually want to use this for some reason,
|
||||
be aware that you will need to know how to write Python
|
||||
to get it to work the way you want. and also, it's *really* slow,
|
||||
and even runs out of memory if too many files need updating (thanks mutagenx).
|
||||
|
||||
### n64\_models
|
||||
|
||||
a hastily-written Python script for outlining the F3DEX model format
|
||||
used in some N64 games.
|
||||
|
||||
### polyphase\_halfband
|
||||
|
||||
a C port (from C++) of the polyphase halfband filter coefficient generator
|
||||
by [Laurent de Soras.](http://ldesoras.free.fr/index.html)
|
||||
|
||||
the original is licensed under the [WTFPL,](http://www.wtfpl.net/)
|
||||
so i'm re-licensing this under [Unlicense,](http://unlicense.org/) because i can.
|
||||
|
||||
don't read into the code too much, it's not meant to be understood (sadly).
|
||||
|
||||
### print\_tables
|
||||
|
||||
provides the `pt` Lua module for recursively dumping table contents
|
||||
into a semi-human-readable format.
|
||||
since the resulting format cannot be deserialized,
|
||||
this is primarily intended for debugging purposes,
|
||||
and i'd like to think it excels at that.
|
||||
|
||||
### psnip\_clock
|
||||
|
||||
a fork of the clock utility header file
|
||||
from [Portable Snippets](//github.com/nemequ/portable-snippets)
|
||||
by Evan Nemerson.
|
||||
this fork removes the dependency on `windows.h` for the Windows backend
|
||||
by using some gross hacks,
|
||||
albeit not as gross as actually having to include `windows.h`.

||||

|
||||
|
||||
### speedrun\_comparison
|
||||
|
||||
an avisynth script for creating
|
||||
[speedrun comparison videos like this.](//youtu.be/Y2wW5TmOzFw)
|
||||
|
||||
### starcraft\_cdkey
|
||||
|
||||
a C program to validate Starcraft 1 CD-keys.
|
||||
the original Starcraft is free now,
|
||||
so this program doesn't serve much purpose other than
|
||||
to demonstrate how *not* to write a CD-key validation routine —
|
||||
you can brute-force any key by hand just by tweaking the final digit!
|
||||
|
||||
### starcraft\_maps
|
||||
|
||||
a Python script for reading and re-writing Starcraft 1 maps,
|
||||
i.e. deprotection, or what-have-you.
|
||||
|
||||
### string\_tensions
|
||||
|
||||
Python scripts for determining optimal guitar string tensions
|
||||
for a given tuning, and similar tasks,
|
||||
backed by a database of manufacturers' strings.
|
||||
the data is probably obsolete these days.
|
||||
|
||||
### thps1
|
||||
|
||||
a C program for exploring the "TYR" glitch in Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 (N64).
|
||||
|
||||
### tiny\_crc32
|
||||
|
||||
a very small C program for computing CRC-32s.
|
||||
this is a rewrite of [the code by Karl Malbrain](http://www.geocities.ws/malbrain/crc_c.html)
|
||||
the license is ambiguous?
|
||||
|
||||
i've written [a similar routine in MIPS assembly.](//eaguru.guru/git/notwa/mm/src/branch/master/asm/crc32.asm)
|
||||
|
||||
### trackmogrify
|
||||
|
||||
just a list of strings recognized by [Distance's](//store.steampowered.com/app/233610/Distance/)
|
||||
trackmogrify feature. this was extracted directly from the game's memory,
|
||||
and was last updated for version 1.0.
|
||||
|
||||
### warcraft\_hash
|
||||
|
||||
a C program for the unique hashing function found in Warcraft III.
|
||||
|
||||
### warcraft\_hashes
|
||||
|
||||
a list of hashes found in the game using the aforementioned hash function.
|
||||
