A set of Python PIL scripts for generating background / wallpaper montages. One of the output montages is here :

A Perl script that formats a bbcode-like markup to HTML for some of my web pages.

A mostly-Powershell script that stops all Windows features and apps that I don't want running. Some features/apps start up again after Windows updates, so this shuts them back down.

Some SMTP/POP3 scripts that I use in various languages to automate email management.

An ffmpeg script that converts an MP3 coupled with a static image to an MP4 so that I can upload podcasts to YouTube. I did provide this on a Twitter/X post once, so maybe it's not something I've kept to myself very well.

Some ffmpeg scripts to convert M4A audio file to MP3.

I have a web page that just displays the current time every second that I use when timing things. It's all very simple client-side JS.

...and others.
