A bin packer script. I use it to efficiently pack folders of stuff for DVD burning. It does not handle recursive folders: only files in 'top level' folders.
import math
import os
from os.path import join, getsize, isfile, isdir
def as_blocks(val):
return math.ceil(val/2048.0) # dvd block size
def getKey(item):
return item[1]

A python 3.x script to combine 2 or more GEDCOM files. All the ids are fixed up to be distinct, and references corrected. Useful to create test GEDCOM files with a specific number of records. May throw an exception on non-ASCII characters, in which case the error characters need to be removed.
import os, sys
# NOTE: assuming 'clean' files: level/tag/etc separated by spaces
# NOTE: assuming 'normal' ids: e.g. Ixxx, where xxx is a number
dict = {}
file2_ids = {}
def file1_ids(line):
# track largest id values

Unit test program: variations on fl_filename_isdir implementations for Windows
/*
1. modify the const BASE to the drive letter you want to test on.
1a. To build, the additional option "/utf-8" needs to be added to the compiler options.
See project settings, compiler, "command line".
2. execute the following commands in a console window at the root of said drive
chcp 65001
mkdir isdirtest
cd isdirtest
mkdir testǼ
