Projects

VimRoom is a Vim plugin that vaguely replicates the exciting distraction-free experience of WriteRoom, but in Vim! With syntax highlighing and status bars! The dream of every nerd!
PyPlaceholder generates placeholder images to… well… hold the place of “real” images in layouts you’re experimenting with.
static_gettext is an internationalization framework for static, plaintext documents and templates. It’s geared towards straightforward translation of static websites, but can be easily used for any set of files you’d like to localize as a group.
jslint utils is a collection of scripts that wrap JSLint for easy linting on the command line (via Node.js or Rhino), and automated reporting of linting errors via a continuous integration system like Hudson.
Send to Instapaper is a Chrome extension that replicates the functionality of Instapaper’s bookmarklet in an elegant and embedded way. I use it daily.

Trivial Forks

yuidoc: A quick fork of YUI Docs that runs texty bits through Markdown before rendering the page.
Jekyll: My Jekyll fork, explained in detail on my blog.
jslint′: JSLint rocks, but it needs some bad parts. I’ve forked it to add in some functionality that Douglas Crockford doesn’t seem to be in any hurry to add, and to revert a few changes he’s made that I think are more damaging than helpful.

Fallow: Ruby-based blogging engine that I wrote as a “Teach myself Ruby” project. I’ve since thrown it away in favour of Jekyll.
Etags for Nginx: Nginx doesn’t generate Etags for static content. With this plugin, it does. Kinda. Sorta. I wouldn’t recommend using this in production.
DataRequestor: Pompously described (in 2005) as “Ajax without the confusing API.” Unmaintained, untouched since SXSW 2005, released under MIT license.
PerfectTime: JavaScript snippet that converts times on a page to a user’s local timezone.
mcw_templates: A TextPattern plugin that enables import and export of templates. I haven’t used TextPattern in years, so I’ve no idea if this plugin still works.
