    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 ?

    I wrote a very simple script to automatically download desktop wallpapers from http://simpledesktops.com/. I then cron'd it to place wallpapers in a folder, and Mac OS automatically rotates through the wallpapers randomly every hour. I love the idea of small, simple projects that make your life better.
