Write your own command line tools!

As a multi-platform computer user, I always miss some things when going from one platform to antoher. Especially when I go to Windows, I miss some command line tools. One remedy would be Cygwin, but for some reason I don't get the idea of Cygwin. I'd rather use Linux directly then, and I don't need complicated tools. I just like to have some simple possibilities. This blog will contain posts about writing small command line tools in Python that work on Windows (XP), Macs and Linux computers, all using the same scripts, or with very minor modifications. This is kinda my hobby, but it has also made my work day more fun.
