Etresoft Programming Site

Welcome

Currently, the following is available:

• XDXF-to-dictionary - New! StarDict is dead. Long live XDXF.
• ZipMounter - New! A utility to open Zip files as volumes.
• DBFLook - A QuickLook plugin for DBF files (as in GIS).
• EtreCode - A set of Xcode templates to build projects the way I want to see them.
• EtreWeb - An Xcode template to easily build menu-driven XSLT-based websites using Xcode.
• ShellHere - A helper application for the MacOSX Finder to open a terminal window for the frontmost Finder window, available on the freeware page.
• Some handy scripts I’ve written.
• My Programming Blog. I got tired of forgetting things I’ve learned and then forgetting why I learned them. This is a place to me to remember all those details.

The following has been removed:

• EtreSpell - A command-line spell-checker for MacOS X. Removed to re-write as Xcode scripts for use with EtreWeb.
• Some bare-bones X11 Xcode project templates. Who wants to write X11 code anymore? Made obsolete by EtreCode.
• EtrePerl, a Perl installer for Windows. I don’t plan on using Windows again.
