  VerCheck 4.4   (Downloads: 338) 
VerCheck checks websites for new versions of the software you use. WHAT IT IS FOR 
************** 
 
I used to check over a dozen websites each day to see if new versions of the software I use had been released.  This was time consuming and error prone.  VerCheck automates this 
process by checking the websites of the programs you use to see if the version numbers have changed. It comes preconfigured from the factory with 64 applications.

  Amper 1.9   (Downloads: 413) 
Safely converts ampersands to !amp; entities In the following, pretend ! is an ampersand. PAD files don't let me give literal examples. Amper converts ! to !amp; in HTML files and back, but does not convert it when the ! is already in an entity e.g. !lt; !thetasym; !eacute; 
 
The main use for this is to pass HTMLValidator verification of your HTML, which is very picky about !, especially inside URLs. 
 
As a side effect, it also ensures all your comment delimiters balance.

mimics a card sorter. Source provided. It is faster than 
both HeapSort and QuickSort. It sorts using a comparision 
routine you provide to compare two elements to be sorted

the key length.
