Some tiny personal programs I've written
Funny, I also wrote some code to solve one of my printer problems. It doesn't do double-sided scanning so the script waits for two recently PDFs in a folder (while trying to be smart about not picking incompatible PDFs) and merge them in the right way: https://github.com/RomainGehrig/PDFCollate
I could have worked the same amount of hours for a client and use the money to buy a duplex scanner, but where's the fun in that ?

Ask HN: What systems and/or software do you use to manage personal documents?
If you want to start scanning your documents but can only scan one side at a time with your automatic document feeder (ADF), I wrote a small tool to merge the PDFs automatically: https://github.com/RomainGehrig/PDFCollate

Ask HN: What is the most impactful thing you've ever built?
Some things I built on the side, outside of my day job:
In the late 90's, I sold a command-line SMTP e-mailer for Windows. It was easy enough for folks to integrate e-mail transmission into their systems ... even 16-bit systems since spawning a copy of the shell would allow 16-bit systems to invoke my 32-bit mailer. Lots of folks had used these tools for all sorts of things. I got registration checks and cash from around the world before I started taking credit card payments.
I have an open source command-line MP3 player for Windows that folks still use and incorporate into their systems, JS libraries for node.js, ...etc.

Some tiny personal programs I've written
I wrote a command-line MP3 player in C for Windows. I just wanted to play with the media manger API's, but I've ended up using this to play MP3's in succession via a script.
https://github.com/jimlawless/cmdmp3
It doesn't work on all versions of Windows ... it depends on some configuration elements. This has been used in another developer's video game and I believe it's installed with an MP3 player library in node.js ( if you're running node.js under Windows. ) It also plays WAV files on Windows 10 (possibly 11) if you pass the name of a WAV file into the command-line.
I needed a command-line emailer that would send an email with a very simple one-line body for my Mac. I also wanted to exercise Go's SMTP libraries while experimenting with trying to build a minimal emailer application.
https://github.com/jimlawless/gsend
I use this regularly. I used to use it on MacOS, but I use it more frequently on Windows.
