Forthcoming (possibly) on this Site
There are always more things I ought to have written up and published (there
is still one academic paper of mine almost but not quite ready for publication
from 10 years ago!). Here are some of the things in my list of possible things
I would like to, or have been asked to, add to this website. I might sometime
get around to doing some of them.
- Add examples & more instructions to Recursive Regexp Replace program documentation.
- Several readers have asked for this.
- Art photography gallery
- I have scanned in approx. 400 of my art photographs which I use as computer
wallpaper & have hundreds more digital ones. Friends & colleagues have
suggested that I put them on the WWW for others to enjoy. All of them I have
already named, many of them I have written captions for & my program for
making thumbnail indexed CDs of holiday photographs for friends essentially
produces a website (the CDs are indexed in HTML). It is a big job though simply
because of the huge numbers, the amount of captioning needed for the remainder
and the amount of recaptioning & renaming needed so they do not give away
private information (friends' names etc.).
- Fiction
- I have a few stories & jokes some people have liked I could publish.
- Movie reviews
- I have written a few hundred of them which I could put on the WWW but I
have several hundred more incomplete and I think I will wait until I have
completed more before converting them to HTML.
- Academic papers & theses
- I could publish reprints here. Of course this site would no longer be at
all anonymous then but some of them would be useful to some people. However
some of the papers are not in HTML (or even computer formats at all as journals
often prefer plain text with separate pictures for them to typeset), my PhD
thesis has been converted to HTML but would need ALT-text written for 600
different bits of algebra & 112 illustrations and I still have not
published all the papers from it so it will be quite a long time before I get
around to that.
- Opinion (philosophy, economics, morality, law, politics etc.)
- I.e. the normal sort of stuff one moans to friends about. It would probably
bore everyone else and my opinions are rather a non-standard mix so I would be
bound to include something to offend almost everyone so maybe this is better
left off the site. Besides, I still not come across any solutions that are
optimally benevolent, stable & implementable for most things so most of the
essays would end with "don't know" anyway.
