TarPit creates Tar archives by drag-n-drop. Compression options include GZip BZip2, and Compress with adjustable compression levels. Also supports MacBinary and AppleDouble options for saving resource forks, as well a fully customizable omission-list that lets you easily exclude certain files from your Tar-archives (handy for filtering out those invisible files that appear on non-Macs). If you'd like, here is a screenshot.

CFU Counter is currently in development. Eventually, the goal is to serve as a microbiology tool which reliably recognizes and counts how many colony-forming-units (CFU's) are growing on a petri-dish. (The short-term goal is to get it "good enough" so I can write an paper about automated colony counting before the end of the semester). When it's ready, there's a pretty good chance I will choose to release it under a GPL license.

(will require mac os 10.5)


TicTacToe has been done thousands of times, so what could be so special about mine? Well, mine was originally coded for my two little sisters. Play against the computer with adjustable difficulty, board size, symbols, transparency, and more. This also happens to be one the the first apps I wrote. Check out the screenshot.
