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.
vicg4rcia.php

vicg4rcia.php is the application code from a larger project, a
blog and content management system I built for my personal website,
vicg4rcia.com.  I built this CMS using the Slim Framework, a PHP
microframework.  More samples of my work with Slim are available
as part of my 'SlimProject' repository on GitHub.
parse_wp_to_ycl2.php

This script was written to assist in migrating from using Wordpress
as a content management system to a custom developed web application.
I needed to parse data from HTML stored within a blog post to an ORM
backed solution.  There are a variety of techniques used.
Listing.php & ListingRepository.php

the Listing and ListingRepository classes are components that I
created for use with a custom content management system.  These samples
demonstrate using Doctrine to describe underlying domain components
and interactions in a concise and organized fashion.  They encapsulate
the functionality for use within both controller action methods
and in UI template rendering.
