Shockwave/XML Slideshow
http://slideshow.hirebill.com/
Source Code Sample 1: Click Here
Source Code Sample 2: Click Here
Technologies Used: Director/Lingo, XML
My Role: Designer/Programmer
Description: Before you take a look at the latest build of this
project, please note that it's not quite ready for prime time. When completed,
Shockwave Slideshow will download XML documents and dynamically load the media
contained therein. Entirely object-based, Slideshow's latest incarnation
features a multi-threaded download manager, media creation/display utilities, and
custom classes for all valid XML elements (the DTD is forthcoming). It uses (and
enhances) Director's XML Parser Xtra. And yes, I am aware that "Shockwave
Slideshow" is a lame working title.

HTML Editing Assistant
THIS APPLICATION IS CURRENTLY BEING PORTED TO A LOCAL SERVER.
Technologies Used: Perl, HTML
My Role: Programmer
Description: If you've ever coded HTML by hand, you know what a
nightmare it can be to control page layout with invisible TABLEs. Enter the HTML
Editing Assistant. By submitting a URL, you can view the table structure of any
page on the web. Basically, this program enables every border and colorizes
every cell it finds.

bGrep
Technologies Used: Perl
My Role: Programmer
Application OS: Linux/Unix
Description: Primarily built as an excuse to learn Perl, bGrep is my
own version of the command line classic. Want to search for all the images in
your HTML files? Run 'bgrep IMG *.html'. A quaint implementation, bGrep's
output is a lot cleaner and easier to read than the matches returned by the
original 'grep'.
