Description

This repository is a collection of tiny utility scripts, patches and hacks.

These are mostly one-time scripts, very old and very specific. I doubt you'll be able to use them as-is. Until you update and tweak them to fit your needs.

And if by chance you fix some bugs or add new features, feel free to submit a pull request. I'll be happy to merge it.

The code here is generally poorly written. Either because my coding style has improved since I wrote them, or because I didn't bother to make the code elegant after I finished my first working iteration.

If for any reason one of these script get momentum, I'll consider moving it to a stand-alone and dedicated project. This already happened in the past with maildir-deduplicate.py.
