programmatical things

When it comes to programming, for the most part I fiddle with esoteric programming languages. A noninclusive list of things follows.

fungot

There is an interesting 2D programming language called Befunge. fungot is an IRC bot written in the Funge-98 version of the language. As far as I am aware, it's one of the largest hand-written Funge-98 programs there are.

Features of fungot include interpreters for the brainfuck and Underload languages, support for user-defined commands in the above-mentioned languages, as well as an ngram-based babble generator with various styles. Most of the time you can find fungot on the channel #esoteric in the freenode IRC network. It also has a periodically active Twitter account.

The main source file is fungot.b98. The GitHub repository there also contains some other files necessary for running it.

ff

Speaking of Befunge, I have also written a somewhat speedy interpreter for the older, more limited Befunge-93 variant of it. It is called ff, and it is but a single file of C: ff3.c. (The 3 is a version number of sorts.)

chainlance (gearlance, cranklance, etc.)

Continuing on the topic of esolangs, I'm responsible of a set of BF Joust implementations. You can find them and their documentation at a GitHub repository.

rfk86

robotfindskitten is a Zen simulation that has been ported to incredibly many sorts of systems. In it, you assume control of a robot, looking for kitten amongst many non-kitten items (NKI).

rfk86 is a port of it to the TI-86 graphing calculator. It has its very own website.

mcmap

mcmap is a Minecraft automap that works by proxying the connection between the Minecraft client and server, and extracting the world information from the traffic. I wrote the initial version in late 2010; other people have worked on it, too. Caveat: it might not always be very speedily updated to be compatible with the latest Minecraft versions.

mcmap has a GitHub repository.

zpaste

zpaste is a simple, single-user (or not-too-many-user) pastebin/tinyurl hybrid, in case you want something a bit more tweakable than the myriad of web services around. GitHub repository.

vnckvm

Let me just quote from the README:

This is a GTK+ program to use the input devices (keyboard, mouse) of one computer as the input devices of a remote computer, via VNC. Think of it as a sort of a DIY "Synergy". The main benefit, compared to an actual VNC client, is significantly improved latency in some cases, as it never actually requests the screen contents from the remote computer.
