My Projects

Here are some of my pet projects that I waste my time on:

Songer

Songer is an ID3 tag editor for MP3s, written in Python, and designed for the ROX desktop. Built around ROX's strong drag-and-drop nature, Songer is a small, fast, and efficent application designed to to make the task of editing ID3 tags easier and simpler.

NOX Theme

The NOX theme is an adaptation of the Noia icon theme from KDE for ROX. It includes a custom GTK2 (which substitues the stock icons used by many programsm, including ROX). This screenshot also uses a custom set of Mime icons, based upon the Noia theme. Both of these can be downloaded from my home page or http://songer.sourceforge.net/.
