Ask HN: What is the most interesting software you wrote in a few days?
Shpotify is a shell script that allows you to control Spotify from the command line: https://github.com/hnarayanan/shpotify
The first version of it I wrote in a couple of hours.
And then it went on to be quite popular and has lived a life of its own.

Ask HN: Tools you have made for yourself?
A long time ago, before Spotify had support for multiple devices where one could act as a remote and control the other, I wrote a tool called Shpotify: https://github.com/hnarayanan/shpotify . It is a simple Bash/AppleScript.
The primary usecase for me was to SSH tunnel into a media centre Mac in my living room and control music on Spotify. I released it on GitHub and it has grown a lot in popularity amongst people who like to do a lot of their computing in the shell.
