TaskPaper file API for Python
Just created a Python API for reading and modifying (even if all the modify features are not complete yet) TaskPaper files. The (so far very small) project is hosted at my GitHub page here. The file you are looking for if you want to play with the API can be found here.

Härligt med folder actions
Efter mycket velande fram och tillbaka blev det till sist så att jag valde Strongspace.com för säkerhetskopiering. Det startade en scriptfest utan dess like för att jag ville få till något som kunde köras semi-automatiskt så väl som on-demand. Det blev ett enkelt shell-script som kör rsync mot servern. För att fixa den semi-automatiska biten [...]

Code Prettifier
I have now completed a web based syntax highlighter that can prettify any code that is already available on the net (like via WebCVS/SVN, or just plain uploaded files). It has support for Java, Python, C++ and Ruby among others. To use it, simply enter a URL to some code you want to be highlighted [...]

Pretty code
Something I have wanted for a long time is an efficient way of highlighting syntax for an arbitrary file. Like uploading a file to some server and then execute a query like this:
http://myserver.com/scripts/highlight?
url=http://www.someserver.com/MyClass.java&
language=java&
showlines=false
And it would generate a clean HTML-output with the code highlighted and pretty.
Since I have not found [...]

New photos uploaded to flickr
During my vacation I have re-organized my digital photo collection. That includes starting to use digiKam to organize them, and flickr.com to show them.
My latest batch were taken during my first visit to the United States in February 2005. I was there to attend the yearly Eclipse conference Eclipsecon.

Updated ~/.vimrc
After hours of testing different settings I finally came up with a new configuration file for Vim. This all started after I upgraded to version 7.0 of this magnificent editor. I also spent several hours trying to find the optional coding font to use in Gnome/GTK/Vim, and belive me, it was HARD. I finally settled [...]

Gaim plugin development (in Ubuntu)
I recently remembered that Gaim has a nice Perl API for writing plugins (or actually I was rembembered by a friend). I decided to test it out by writing a plugin for displaying the current playing song in Rhythmbox in instant messages when the keyword '%rb' is found (I know there is a plugin for that already, but I did not get that to work).

BinOcular – bits in structure
I would like to take the oppertunity to talk a little about our latest project at Purple Scout.
BinOcular is the response to an ever-growing need to browse different kinds of binary files, both modern well documented formats, as well as obscure legacy ones. When developing products, the developer is frequently faced with the problem [...]
