Throwawy scripts that might be of use to others.
Thransoft CGI-WIN scripts. Current version: wip
Assorted fun CGI scripts written in Perl. Currently we have Flegger which generates a flag and country name from random numbers. You may try Flegger here. There is also a Bash CGI system stat reporter that reports your uptime, memory usage and load average in JSON. More scripts and features may be added in the future.

Thransoft No-WEI.
No-WEI is a JavaScript banner that will inform Chrome users of the dangers of Google's WEI proposal and urge them to switch to another browser. The banner may be included on your site with just two lines of HTML. It also has a 'dismiss' button so the user has the choice of hiding it persistently.
An example page that shows the banner to all browsers may be seen here.
Now unnecessary since Google dropped the WEI proposal. I believe due in part to this script getting some traction on Reddit. Whether the case or not, good riddance and a health to the open Internet!

Thransoft DOCBOT. Current version: none
DOCBOT is a salty and opinionated Slack bot written in Perl. Invite him to your slack channel at your own peril. Leave your number with a loved one before reading the source code.
The DOC brings absolutely no features that add convenience to your workplace. In the future this may change. But as of now, he is configurable as a Slack RTM App and will connect successfully, then join your conversation.

Feckback. Current version: R1.0
Feckback is a backup script that makes it easy to backup your home directory and copy that backup off to a network drive. It allows exclusion of needless directories like '.cache/'.
Full description is included in README.md, or available on the web.

[Ancient] EVIL ROOM. Current version: 1.0. MS-Windows Only!
Evil Room is a game of horror and escape. But you play as something just as horrid as anything around you. You play as a demented teddy bear, and he wishes to escape his prison so that he may terrorise the world.
Aid him in his escape, and when he has his hour, he will consider sparing you and everyone you cherish.
This was a game I developed in Game Maker 1.x as part of a cross-school project in 2011. Tread with suitable caution. If you wish to play on Linux, it might work in Wine.

[Retired] Thransoft Light Utils
Light utils is a collection of shell and Python scripts. They were created to solve specific Linux problems for me; they may solve the same problems for you.
Read the plain text release notes to see whether they might.
