A VoIP client.

This was my choice when I was experimenting with on-computer VoIP solutions.

A program to present a GUI dialog, that lets a scripter get user input.

I didn’t use this for anything notable enough to form an opinion. It seems nice, but I didn’t want to have yet another application, especially one with a dependency, when there’s something commandline already (dialog).

A GUI program that turns NumLock on. Great for turning it on as X starts.

Why ever numlock would be turned off by default is beyond me. It’s not that I can’t see a use for it as a cursor pad, but it’s a number pad. That’s just not “use for those keys”. That’s their damned name!
