SA Goon World Map is a parser for the world map of SA Goons.
Database files needed available as separate download.
Tarkus made the orignal Windows version and the database, but after a hard disk crash the project was dropped, and so was my Mac version.

JUCE (Jules Utility Class Extensions) is an all-encompassing C++ class library for developing cross-platform applications.
JUCE is particularly good for creating highly-specialised user interfaces and for handling graphics and sound.
The intended users are developers like me, who are writing large, complex applications in C++ and who would like to use just one clean, high-level API rather than a bunch of different libraries for different purposes or platforms.
Main features:
- Basics - Worlds best string class; arrays; stream and file handling; time and date; maths functions, random numbers, reference counting, super-fast XML parser and well-stocked XML manipulation classes; abstractions for threads, processes, critical sections etc; built-in GZIP compression/decompression streams and ZIP file readling; undo/redo support; logging; messaging layer with timers, event listeners; etc. etc.
- User Interface - Cross-platform windowing capability with extremely powerful lightweight component architecture. Ready-made components include buttons, lists, menus, textboxes, treeviews, scrollbars, etc. Components are customisable either at a low-level by creating your own (or by subclassing existing ones), or at an application-wide level by creating custom look-and-feel styles for them.
- Vector Graphics - Fast, high-quality anti-aliased rendering of shapes with transpaency, gradient fills, etc; path stroking with different line styles, dashed-lines; affine transformations and geometry classes; manipulation of typefaces as paths and custom font engine to provide sub-pixel accurate text in a platform-independent manner; typefaces can be serialised for easy embedding of fonts in an executable.
- Image manipulation - High-quality rendering of images, allowing affine transformations and transparency; support for cross-platform OpenGL windows within Juce windows; built-in parser for loading JPEG, PNG and GIF image formats; image caching; easy embedding of images in an executable without having to use platform-specific resources.
- Audio - Low-latency audio engine supporting DirectSound, ASIO and CoreAudio devices; audio buffer classes for mixing and manipulating samples; Parsers for WAV and AIFF formats, as well as reading audio streams from audio CD devices (easy on the Mac, but tricky on Windows!); powerful MIDI message classes; MIDI file load/save; connectable audio-processing nodes including sample-rate conversion.
- Networking - URL handling; http and ftp reader streams; launching default browsers, etc.
- Easy to integrate - JUCE is a static library so your application can run as a stand-alone executable - no extra dlls to install, nothing for users to mess up! In your application, youll just need to include one header file: "juce.h" and thats it - no platform-specific code or any other headers needed.

DreamCatcher is software that spellchecks web sites.
A nightmare of both novice and advanced web developers is finding a misspelling in their work. What is worse is a client or an end user finding a misspelled word. You lose credibility and just generally look bad. The problem is that it is difficult to spell check a Web site -- that is where DreamCatcher comes in.
DreamCatcher is a nifty utility to check for spelling errors on a web site. DreamCatcher moves through the pages of a given site checking both the text on the site as well as the text of linked Microsoft Word and Adobe PDF documents. DreamCatcher makes it easy to find where the misspellings are located on your site by highlighting the words in a web viewer.
Enhancements:
- Two html parsers are now available: the classic regex based DreamCatcher parser and now the new XML Tidy based parser. The default remains the DreamCatcher parser, but you can switch over to Tidy via the preferences.
- Tidy is stricter and probably more "correct" than the old DreamCatcher parser but as a consequence of that it does not handle malformed pages as well. Both parsers seem to be about the same speed, but Tidy seems to use less memory so Tidy might be the better choice if you need to scan huge pages.
