Hi, you've just found Brian Stafford's web site, well, one of them anyway. That's me looking horribly distorted in the crummy web-cam mug shot on the right. (Pause a few seconds until you recover from the shock of seeing that picture.)
I expect you came here because your interests coincide with mine, which are music, theatre, roller coasters and, er, programming! I do actually have other interests besides those but I forget what they are just now.
Although I'm originally from Northern Ireland, I now live and work in the Yorkshire Dales (in England).
I'm a keen musician playing traditional Irish music. My principal instrument is Uilleann Pipes. I also play Low Whistle, Tin Whistles, Flute (or at least I try to) and a Yamaha WX-11/VL70m Wind Synth which is approximately saxophone fingering.
I haven't done a theatre related web site. Sorry. I'm a member of a local amateur theatre group, the Keighley Playhouse, where I usually get involved in lighting and F/X or some other technical aspect of a production. I haven't treaded the boards, although I have appeared as a double for one of the actors in Corpse! Keighley Playhouse has a web site at www.keighleyplayhouse.co.uk. Unfortunately, I don't know what it looks like - it requires the use of something or other which I haven't installed.
(This is the geek section)
For geeks only, you probably came looking for
libESMTP which
is an open source SMTP client
API released under the LGPL. If you don't know what SMTP or the LGPL is
or why you'd want an API, this stuff is probably of no interest to you.
libESMTP is written in ISO standard C for Posix compliant Unix and
GNU/Linux systems.
Finally, If you aren't using Linux or FreeBSD yet, you should be.
I've discovered a few years ago that I'm addicted to roller coasters. So now I have to make up for lost time. To further this aim, I've recently joined the Eurpoean Coaster Club.
It occurs to me that the Linux/FreeBSD world is missing a roller coaster simulator. Maybe I should write one.
