Package Install History Script


Today I needed to check my latest updated packages and thought a script might be handy.

This script lists your installed packages with installed dates and times, most recently installed first.

http://www.unrealize.co.uk/scripts/packagehistory

Usage: packagehistory N
Where N is number of most recent installed packages to list
If N is omitted all packages will be listed.

Hope some of you find it useful, and if anyone has ideas to extend it let me know.

Cheers

Thought I'd put some more scripts up. Some simple audio convertors that use mplayer:

flac2wav
flac2mp3
wma2wav
wma2mp3
ra2wav
ra2mp3

My conkyrc modified from SqdnGuns' with wireless monitor and local weather report (needs weather and GrabWeather scripts).

chartable which lists characters with ascii codes in dec and hex.

hex2dec converts hex numbers to decimal.

heh, I made a program called exactly that 'hex2dec' to do the exact same thing, only I wrote it in C (I thought it would be easier).
