ticker

ticker is a cli app written in python.  The application
accesses stock market data using Yahoo's YQL api.  The stock
quote data is then printed to the screen in well formatted
columns.
buscatcher.py & cta_on_ios.py

buscatcher.py is a script that is part of a larger system used
to collect and process data by chester250.com.  cta_on_ios.py
is a 'port' of another part of that system for use with the
'Python for iOS' iPhone app.  Both of these samples, as well
as the underlying system they are a part of are written
in Python.
start.sh

start.sh is a simple script I created to install my working
development shell environment with my prefered configurations
on a new ubuntu machine.  I live in a terminal all day, using my
prefered toolchain of tmux, vim, and git.  This script installs
and also creates the necessary configuration for these tools as
well as a number of additional plugins and custom functionality.
fixreddit.php

fixreddit.php is a php class that I created for my own use with
an RSS reader.  I wanted to be able to customize the format and
content of an RSS feed of links from a Reddit.com subreddit.  I
was able to find other components to handle interaction with the
Reddit API and creating an RSS feed.  I then used these to create
the specific functionality I was looking for.
