Interesting thread!

Well, I started coding ActionScript for Flash years ago (Flash 5).
Then got tired of all that Flash and started to dislike it. So I started to code PHP and SQL.
Somewhat around 2001/2002 (when Gennto RC4 was released) I started to hack around with BASH. Writing little BASH based tools. Most known: OTRtool (http://wiki.onlinetvrecorder.com/ind...nux#OTRtool.sh). And many other mostly for my personal use.

Used a lot of BASH for the daily work (Molecular Modeling).

Soon bash reached it's limit and I searched for an alternate programing language with good text processing support. Well Perl was to cryptic, so I ended up with Python and fell in love with it from the first Shebang.

Until some weeks ago I never coded GUI's for my tools (never had any use for a GUI cause most scripts were run on Linux Clusters)

But then the N900 came out and here we go, my first GUI-Tool for my phone (By the way, any help appreciated, especially integrating the tool into the address book)!

I should mention, I am a biochemist, and well, I dare to say the only one - not 100% sure about that - from my semester who can seriously code (not perfect and 100% clean, but I archive want I want) ;-)

I love it when people can benefit from my code and thats why I am so much into the OpenSource community.

Cheers
