fft.cc (1kb)
A stand-alone implementation of the Fast Fourier Transformation (FFT).
I thought this might be useful to someone since most other FFT implementations need additional libraries.
toad-callback-history.tar.gz (4kB)
The first steps during October 1996 towards TOADs callback implementation. It's the code were I've tried MFC alike message maps and quickly dropped the idea.
moonbase.tar.gz (94kB)
A C++ program to read & write dBase^TM files from 1993/1995. There's no way to search a database but it's possible to lock and
unlock records. Don't expect much. It's the first real program I wrote with C++, so it's really a mess.
Development started with Borland^TM C++ 3.1 under DOS and was finished with GCC 2.5.8 under Linux 1.1.59 (Slackware 2.1.0). It's also the first program I wrote with GNU/Linux.
3dworld.tar.gz (20kB)
A simple and slow z-Buffer implementation. Development started with Borland^TM C++ 4.0 (?) under Win32s and was finished under GNU/Linux. It's the 2nd program I wrote with GNU/Linux and I've never touched M$ Windows for something serious afterwards.
FormLayout.zip (4kB)
TOADs Form layout manager for Java.
qmail-remote-1.03+smtp-auth.diff.gz (2kB)
A patch to add SMTP AUTH to qmail-remote. Only the LOGIN method is
supported now but this is currently enough for my ISP.

I'm the author of the infamous TOAD C++ GUI Toolkit and a lot of other software no one really needs.
I studied computer science at the Rostock University Department of Computer Science, were I've met my lovely wife.
After working as a freelancer I started to work at one of Europe's leading linux company's with offices in more than 5 cities:

Then the marketing department spent a lot of money for a new cooperate identity

and we went bankrupt. Meanwhile the company transformed into the

mailing list and the parts of the product and service department became

Gelonet GmbH

for a while. When the lawyers had done their job we finally became

That's were I make a living now, helping to create our new product, the mGuard.
