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

Some tiny personal programs I've written
I can relate to the document scanning issue. In my case, I digitize all documents I get on paper. For this, I've written this wrapper: https://github.com/dbrgn/pydigitize
It does the following steps:
- Scan a document with any scanner that supports SANE (ADF supported)
- Straightening and cleaning of scanned documents
- Run OCR on PDF so that it becomes searchable
- Generate PDF/A file for archival
- Add keywords to the PDF file
I've probably saved many hours with this script, even when taking into account the time it took me to write it.
Tiny projects don't always save time, but they sure are gratifying when they work as intended!
