• I added a PHP based download counter to this website.  Check it out!

October, 2023

• I need to comment on something I read in stackoverflow.com which I found by searching in duckduckgo.com on:

  bash libraries

  I have a solution.  My SAM enables libraries of Bash shell functions plus any scripts or other executables that can be run from a Bash shell.

• (231005) I released SAM-1.2.

• (231022) I released SAM-1.3.

• I received an email from a user about SAM.  The user suggested that I, "Include some examples of how you use the program."  This was a good suggestion.  Good especially, because it prompted me to do some thinking.  You can read how I responded, and the thoughts that were generated, here.

September, 2023:

• Hello!  I have released SAM--again.  This release is available here through this webhost.

  This is not a proper release, and should be considered experimental.  Although I think the code is in good shape, the documentation that accompanies it, and my discussion of it in this website, are both in poor shape.  I went ahead anyway with a Learn by Doing attitude.  (Trial by Fire?)

  See the SAM blog.

  Let's call it SAM-1.0.

October, 2022:

• I'm going to try a new approach, and invite interaction.  I want to use my tools and methods to provide solutions.  Please write me with your interests.  Tell me about the sort of solutions that you need.  I will respond.

  You may want to know what sort of "sand box" I play in:

  • You can read about me on my LinkedIn page.

  • My personal website, JoesLife.org, tells much about my interests.  It also is an example of what I can do with my tools and methods, as the site is made using them.

March, 2022:

• I added to the SAM blog.

• I published a plotting tool--my script called gogeeqie.

February, 2022:

• I made some updates to this website:  I added PHP-based counters to the pages of this site, and I added a page For Testing Counters which I use, no surprise, for testing the counters.

December, 2021:

• There is nothing new to report.

  I have done much software development, but there is nothing new that is ready to distribute.  You can read about my software development here.

September, 2021:

• I re-built this website using a new tool.

February, 2021:

• I added some text to a page in this site about "The Modules of SAM".  (231024: I removed this page.)

September, 2020:

• I added a new product, Dupe, to this website--see below and also "Products" at the left.

• I have classified my Joe's Boot Disk product as "unsupported", and I made corresponding changes to this website.

March, 2020:

• I uploaded SAM to SourceForge.  This upload included a Python script in module example (which I made with a little help) called Dupe.  Dupe sends email.

• I made a separate SourceForge project for Dupe, so you can get it by itself without having to download and install SAM.

• I made some website updates.

October, 2018:

• I updated the website.  Mainly this consisted of removing sections that were not complete.

• I uploaded SAM to SourceForge.

March, 2018:

• I'm making plans to do some uploading of products.

• I uploaded SAM to SourceForge.

February, 2016:

• I updated the website.
