Description:
This is a Dashboard widget for Mac OS X Tiger. It computes the UTC, LST, JD and MJD for provided observatories in the world. It can also computed airmass curves and observablities. It is not a script by itself rather than a collection of CSS, Javascript, HTML, Python and C scripts... But it provides excellent examples computations n javascript, how to manage XML files and XMLHttpRequests in Javascripts, as well as some basic python stuff.

I was e-mailed a request for this. Some people want to use Skim as their TeXShop previewer. However, they want to be able to use Skim's PDFSync compatibility to open TeXShop at a particular line. This script allows them to do this (NOTE: This 1.01 version has been updated. Try the -h option for details or see the web page).

Description:
This is a script to put on the end of your NCSA batch files, to do parallel uploads to mass storage at the end of your runs. It should be possible to adjust this script to work with other supercomputers too.
Sample usage is
# Designate storage directory on MSS
set STORAGE_DIR="Runs/Flash25/bhl/exe01"
# Make the file list
\ls -1 --hide-control-chars *hdf* *log flash.dat > files.txt

Description:
"Inverse" or "backward" PDF (via PDFSync) and DVI searches allow an author to click on text in a document produced by LaTeX and have the actual LaTeX source get opened and the cursor positioned at the corresponding line. This is supported by several PDF/DVI viewers and text editors in OS X. However, it is not really practical to do with Vim.
I've created this UNIX script to make inverse searches easy to do in Vim. See the "Author's Homepage" URL (or the first few commented lines of the script) for usage information. (UPDATE: There was a typo in version 1.0 uploaded to site. This is now fixed in v1.01 uploaded to site)

Description:
The simpdftex that comes with most LaTeX distributions is not compatible with the auto-refresh features of Skim version 0.5 and up.
This simpdftexnodel (where "nodel" is short for "no delete") is compatible with Skim.

Description:
Allows a file to be opened from the shell by Skim. This is convenient for some text editors (e.g., Vim, GVim, Emacs, iTeXMac) used to produce, for example, LaTeX documents. (NOTE: Updated 1.03 version has lots of PDFSync support and other AppleScript hooks. Also will figure out file name when you omit extension)

Description:
To study the performance of a parallel ACO algorithm with various components (interconnection topology, migration frequency, number of CPUs) I wrote this R script to perform an ANOVA on the experimental results.
Hope it could be a start point for others with similar needs.
