Welcome to Jim Turner's Script Page! |
|
My name is Jim Turner (turnerjw784 aattsymbolthingy yahoo.com). I am a Perl programmer from Weatherford (Hudson Oaks, actually), Texas who primarily does
Perl/CGI web and Perl/Tk applications and tools. I grew up in Denton,
Texas and graduated from Texas A&M University in May, 1984 with a BS in Computer Science. This is my 1st stab at a homepage! Since I do this all
day at work, I hardly ever feel like
spending much time on a homepage.
My primary purpose for this site is to
provide the world (and myself when on the road) with the opportunity to download some of my scripts.
Depreciated - To see how I installed Linux on my (ancient, now defunct) Dell CPxH500 Laptop computer, go here. I now use SimplyMepis v8 on my new (referbished) Dell D620, worked out of the box! I, of course rebuilt the kernel, firefox (minefield) and did numerous other hacks (see LiveJournal) to optimize and customize! Depreciated - To see how I got my new Sony DSC-P72 digital camera to work with Linux, go here. My latest Sony camera "just work" out of the box w/Linux, just have to select "PTP" mode. Visit my LiveJournal (mostly technical notes I save in order to access when and where I need them) |
To download a script, rightclick on it and save the link. Stay tuned for updates!

That said, Enjoy the Ride!
I now am using "PAR" to build some Windows (and maybe later Linux) binaries. I have started with SqlPerlPlus. Download the Windows Binary today! You should also download the source in order to get the utilities and configuration files. I have never been able to post Windows binaries due to my unwillingness to purchase the "Perl2Exe" "compiler", but PAR is FREE (Open Source) and seems to work better, so here goes!
All scripts should now work on Windows OR Unix!!!!!
