Plgen 1.0
Plgen (Playlist Generator) is a tool that sorts files for MP3 players in a user defined order. Cheap MP3 players often come with no playlist capabilities. In addition these players often make use of the FAT16/32 file system, leading to confusion when the playing order is not alphabetical on the device even though it is shown as alphabetical in the file explorer.
Release Notes: This release no longer needs multiple tools to sort files on an MP3 player using the FAT filesystem, and now runs only under Linux. For developers, the QA is improved, Python coverage is introduced, and code coverage is appropriate on main parts. The code is easy to extend and contains example code and documentation Developers interested in development on Microsoft systems could either use v1.0 and modify Linux-specific parts or start developing from v0.8.

Release Notes: This release adds a new -Ca option that enables all counters at once. The -Mc option can now be used multiple times, to allow range matching with excludes (to build holes in the range) on the total amount of set members. The new option '--' allows you to work with set names starting with a hyphen (-). An issue where all members were excluded from a listing if an invalid regex pattern was used with option -Xr was fixed. The programmable completion has been rewritten. Some bugs have been fixed and support for set names starting with a hyphen was added.

BoolStuff 0.1.14
BoolStuff is a small C++ library that computes the Disjunctive Normal Form of a boolean expression binary tree. The library also has a C programming interface.
Release Notes: This version fixes a bug where some expressions containing large negations would fail an assert statement instead of returning the expected null expression. It also fixes a bug where some duplicate terms would not be detected because their factors needed to be sorted and simplified themselves to allow that detection. In addition, g++ 4.7.2 compilation errors were fixed (re: swap() function).
