Software Calculated to Drive You Mad

We at Crummy want to help the developer community. Why? So that we can gain their trust and then trick them into using our proprietary technology.

Just kidding. The programs here are all licensed under either an OSI-approved license or the generic 'look at the code and let me know if you want to use it for something' license. Enjoy!

For many small but fun scripts, see Features.
