Projects that I’m working on

HighlightMyCode - Syntax Highlighting on-the-fly!

I just finished a new project called HighlightMyCode. The goal is simple: to provide Syntax highlighting for your code snippets on the fly. Just paste your code, select a language and a theme and you’re done. You’ll get a small piece of javascript to embedded your highlighted snippet on your site.
It’s basically the same idea […]

SilverIPE: A lightweight, cross-browser In Place Editor

I just finished the first version of SilverIPE, a lightweight, cross-browser in place editor. Some of it’s features include:

Cross-Browser (Tested with IE 5,6&7 - Firefox 2&3 - Safari 2&3 - Opera)
No dependencies. Only 1 javascript file to include, that’s it
Easy to use
Well documented

The documentation, examples etc. can be found on the SilverIPE’s page. If you […]

SilverAjax: Because the world needs more XMLHttpRequest wrappers…

Well, I decided to put together my own XMLHttpRequest wrapper. Not because we don’t have enough choice already but mostly because:

I needed some Javascript practice (without using a framework like mootools)
I wanted to learn more about the XMLHttpRequest object
I love mootools and prototype’s XMLHttpRequest wrapper and wanted something similar without having to use a whole […]

MooSlides: Sliding panels for mootools 1.2

Well I just finished a first working versions of mooslides, a sliding panel widget for mootools. It was inspired by all those sites (gamespot, tv.com etc.) using flash sliding panel widgets. I’m pretty sure a similar widget already exists for mootools, haven’t looked actually, but eh it had been a while since I had some […]

NAWTE0.4: Finally! MooTools1.2 compatibility…

Well I’m pretty much done porting nawte to MooTools1.2… I still haven’t updated nawte’s main site, but the latest source can be grabbed at nawte’s git repository located at http://github.com/SilverTab/nawte/. If you are not familiar with git, you can just browse the source and grab it from there…
Besides 1.2 compatibility there’s also one small change. […]

MooBBCode - A port of BBCode to Javascript

Yes, MooBBCode is a port of BBCode to javascript, with the help of mootools. The goal is to eventually plug it into NAWTE.
It features:

Smilies
Quotes
Links, email links
2-way parsing (to html or to bbcode)
much more…

Just head out here to read more about it, or check out a demo here.

Moodows, Draggable windows for MooTools1.0

This is a small script I wrote for supporting Draggable windows in MooTools (deals with z-indexes etc).
It’s nothing spectacular but could be useful for some! Eventually the windows will be skinnable and resizable…
It’s pretty much my first experience with both mootools and javascript so try not to become aggressive if you realise it’s really nothing […]

Announcing GSubConverter 0.1

Well, I am working on a new project, a PyGTK application to convert subtitle files (anyone who watch a lot of divx will know what I am talking about ;) )
So far it can open:
-SubRip (.srt)
-SubStationAlpha (.ssa)
-SubViewer 1&2 (.sub)
-MicroDVD (.*)
and convert them to:
-SubRip (.srt)
-MicroDvd (.*)
It features Auto-Line Break for subtitles that does’t feature them (ex: […]

ShowSimilar Screenshot

Ok I said I was going to post a screenshot of the plugin in action, well I am no liar so here it is:

As you can see it’s pretty straight-forward. You right click on a song >> Plugins >> Show similar artists. A list of similar artists will appear. Select one and google it.

QuodLibet Plugin

I downloaded a nice mp3 player for Gnome yesterday: Quod Libet. It’s highly customizable and has a really nice library search engine based on RegEx. I decided to write my own plugin for it: SimilarArtist. The plugins will suggest a list of artist that you might like based on the selected song. The data is […]
