/*
  ptr_inspect.c

  Demonstration code; shows how to trace the system calls in a child
  process with ptrace.  Only works on 64-bit x86 Linux for now, I'm
  afraid.  (Even worse, it's only tested on Linux 2.6....) 
 
  The callname() function looks clunky and machine-generated because it
  *is* clunky and machine-generated.

addmint.py

Adds Mint analytics to a static HTML page; requires BeautifulSoup.

(I use this for Aperture exports.)

/*

Simple timing test of exec-ing versus embedding python interpreter.

Note that to embed python programs with dynamically loaded extension
modules, you'll need to do some special linking tricks:

   http://www.python.org/doc/2.5.2/ext/link-reqs.html

Compile this file with something like:

willb

# bit-for-bit copy of the drive at /dev/sda to sda.img on a removable disk
dd if=/dev/sda of=/media/removable/sda.img bs=1024

willb

# convert sda.img to a QEMU disk image
qemu-img convert -f raw sda.img -O qcow sda-qcow.img

# convert sda.img to a vmware disk image
qemu-img convert -f raw sda.img -O vmdk sda.vmdk
