DiskImg is a small command-line utility that dumps the contents of a drive or partition to standard out. Because it is based on large file support, it is able to skip over read errors and log them to a log file. It can start reading at an offset and writes its progress to stderr.

Diskus is a high-level hard drive diagnostic and limited repair tool. It checks the disk geometry by writing numbered IDs into the sectors of the hard drive. Later one can verify that these sector-IDs on the disk are still correct, thereby detecting data which was not correctly written. There is an option to "freshen" the data on your harddrive, which will read and rewrite the sectors. With modern drives this will re-map defective sectors.

ipof is a shell tool which resolves hostnames to IP. It's IPv4- and IPv6-aware, and easy and simple to use. It uses the libc resolver, which supports /etc/hosts, can batch over lists of hostnames in files, gives a usable return code, and can be used interactively.

Lockrun opens or creates a file, places a lock on the file, and, if the lock is obtained, runs another program. When the program terminates, the lock is removed. Options can be set to control waiting, timeout, logging, lock type, and whether the lockfile should be removed.

md5backup allows users to back up files to another hard disk or NFS volume, storing files under their MD5 sum. This way they can check the file's integrity without the help of the original computer, and files with identical content are only stored a single time.

md5chk is a tool for creating MD5 sums. It was designed so that its output would be easy to use with command line shells. It guarantees that the MD5 sum is always "clean" of characters that would be misinterpreted by the shell and that special characters in the file names are always properly escaped.

printargs does for command line arguments what printenv does for the environment. The output is bash friendly such that you can assemble the arguments to stdout in a way that bash can parse them on shell level without additional help. This works even for meta-characters or line feeds in arguments. The code also is optimized to compile into a small static executable.

ptybuffer was designed to get rid of screen/expect constructs to improve stability. It daemonizes programs which need a TTY/PTY to operate. Unix domain sockets then can connect, send lines to the program and receive the output (with history) of the program in real time. It also includes NWNadm, a PHP-based Neverwinter Nights server administration frontend, which includes a demonstration of an easy Web-based command-line shell access to the computer.

Scylla Charybdis lets you get a data odyssey done with the help of two small monsters. It's easy to use, utilizes SSL (encryption), LIBZ (compression), and simple password protection. A builtin timeout detects link breaks (for dialups) such that an uploads can be automatically continued from where it broke (within a file). MD5 sums detect if files are successfully transferred. In case of data changes the destination is renamed and not overwritten (backup history). Data throttling can prevent the transfer from using up full link speed, such that a background upload does not disturb your SSH sessions (like SCP does).

Sq3 is an SQLite query tool designed from ground up to be used from shell/bash level. It has many options for escaping results, allows a timeout for concurrent updates, and is able to load data from files via a looping option.
