Miscellaneous Hacks


What this page is for
On this page I've included links to a few choice pieces of code. The only unifying theme is that these files demonstrate ways of cooping with esoteric problems; things I was unable to find good solutions for using google searches. With my solutions now linked off this webpage, it's my hope that other programmers pestered by these same problems will have a slightly easier time dealing with them.

Treat this code as you would examples found on a development forum. It comes with no guarantees. Not only may it not work; you can also expect spelling and grammar errors in the comments ;-)
