All the scripts herein are either Public Domain or GPL and available free. These aren't huge applications, just handy programs that I use from time to time, so I thought I would pass them one. Some are borrowed, some I wrote (beware, I am not a programmer).
Automailer This is a simple Perl script that can be used on just about any server running Apache. It is a form that lets visitors email you without you posting your email address. It has a couple of nice features, but very small. Very easy to modify as well. I wrote this one, but there are 100 similar ones out there.
Environment Script This tiny script shows you all the $ENV environmental information that is available to Perl from Apache. Handy.
Perl Version Perl Version just returns the current version of perl installed on the host system. This is useful for people that do not have shell access, and can only upload scripts.
Get Prime Numbers Silly little program that runs in a shell and will create a list of prime numbers, writing them to a log file. The longer it runs, the more primes it finds. Will run forever, or until it runs out of resources. On my box, eats about 6-8% cpu and less than 2mb of ram, but writes alot, so it runs about 2.25 load. Your mileage may vary. Require the linux FACTOR program, since it is just a wrapper for it. (should already be installed on any linux box)
