Norman Dunbar's Projects
qltools with added libhxcfe support.
Reads the source code for the QL Wiki, in WiClear format, and produces a file in (almost) any format that you fancy, provided you have a conversion file set up for that output format.
QStripper is a utility that extracts text (only) and text formatting, from a Sinclair QL "Quill" document, which could have been created on a PC as well. The text can then be edited on screen before being exports to a number of different formats.
A version of my QStripper utility, for the Sinclair QL, but based on QT6 instead of QT4. This necessitated a bit of a rewrite as my Linux system no longer provided QT4 as an installable option.
Small utility to dump out, in hex, the contents of a Sinclair QL formatted QXL.WIN file - in a meaningful context, not just a pile of hex numbers.
Tools to manipulate Sinclair QL "QXL.WIN" files on numerous (!) operating systems.
My Rants and Raves blog from years gone by. Now migrated from Wordpress to Hugo.
A small test application to try out the OCILIB access components. This one reads back the most recent RMAN backup details from any number of databases.
Simple command line argument parser.
Better SD Card File handler for Arduino.
How to create and use SSH Tunnels with Toad, SQLDeveloper, SQL*PLus etc. Uses Putty, MobaXterm and BitVise SSH clients to create the tunnels.
RWAP Software's Online SuperBASIC manual - for conversion purposes
Arduino Task Scheduler
Minimal I2C master routines for ATtiny processors with a USI.
Convert a tnsnames.ora into a file suitable for Toad to import into its connections grid.
Validate and syntax check your tnsnames.ora file.
Adjusts an Oracle trace file to add time deltas etc, to make the "tim" values more readable.
An improved version of TraceMiner. Written in C++ and quite honestly, a better product altogether!
This is a ANTLR4 generated parser for a work in progress project to read in a text file describing the features of a QL Toolkit command, and from that, to generate the ReStructuredText source files for the Sphinx-doc build of the Online SuperBasic Manual (OSBM).
visualize Oracle AWR performance metrics using this fine grained charting tool.
This is the LyX source code for the article on how to write Arduino and AVR libraries. The demo libraries can be found in my digitalPin and avrDigitalPin repositories.
Cross compiler for QDOS c68 on POSIX platforms
