Keyboard Cleaner 1.0
Keyboard Cleaner shields your desktop and intercepts every keystroke you might accidentally make more>>
Enter Keyboard Cleaner. It shields your desktop and intercepts every keystroke you might accidentally make except for Command-Q.
Needles to say that this was an educational project for me. While trying to create something like Visor for iTerm about a year ago I needed to figure out how to make a fading window without delving into Quarz Graphics too deeply.
Of course, Keyboard Cleaner comes free of cost. I even made a clunky video of how it works. Keyboard Cleaner is a Universal Binary and works with multi-monitor setups.

Consh 0.1
Easy to use and simple Unix shell created for educational purposes more>> Easy to use and simple Unix shell created for educational purposes
Consh is an open source, Python based and extremely simple Unix shell (like bash or csh or ksh). Consh is almost certainly too simplistic for you to actually use as a day-to-day shell.
Its only real use is learning how Unix shells work, by seeing the interaction between the fork, exec and wait system calls coded up concisely (< 100 LOC) in a friendly and easy-to-read language.
If you are after a somewhat more serious attempt at implementing a Unix shell in Python, you can check out Pysh or Pyshell, which seem to be more serious projects.
NOTE: Consh is distributed and licensed under a standard 3-clause BSD license.
System requirements:
- Python
