TkSessionManager: A simple X11 Launcher with integrated electronic notepad.

The TkSessionManager program is a simple but essentially complete program launcher application that includes an "electronic notepad", which is just a text area where text can be pasted, typed, or used to collect the output of a program run at the command line. This text area can be saved to a text file or sent to a printer.

The TkSessionManager program implements a launcher menu that is fully user customizable. There is an integrated editor to edit the launcher menu or the menu file can be edited with a standard text editor. This menu can be defined to have sub-menus (cascading menus) and there is no defined limit controlling the depth of the sub-menus. The program
includes an actions menu for system wide actions. It starts a user-specified window manager and runs a session start up script to launch a user-defined set of initial applications.

FacebookTcl: A port of the Facebook API to Tcl (layered on Don Libes’s cgi.tcl).

This is a port of Facebook’s API that I translated from php to Tcl, using SNIT as the OO framework and using Don Libes’s cgi.tcl package to implement the low-level CGI/HTML layer. The API has been lightly tested by using it for a simple Facebook application that I wrote.

The source archive comes with documentation and a trivial application.
