About me: I am a student in the LUX program and graduate of the Seneca ==Subject Description=CNS== program. I can be emailed at gjmasseau@learn.senecac.on.ca.

As far as operating systems are concerned, I will use whatever works: usually this means Linux, MacOS, or BSD. This preference, however, is hardly religious: operating systems are ultimately just tools and what's really important is whether the solution works. Not to mention, it's always fun to check out some quirky, obscure operating system in search of interesting new ideas.

As far as programming goes, my skills lie mostly with the [1] language, although recently I've been spending a lot of time working on learning Scheme and Common Lisp. I first began programming with [2] on an old Yamaha CX5M with a Z80 processor. Since then, I've mostly continued by tinkering in my spare time, and have dabbled in languages including C, C++, Pascal, Csound, TI Basic, VisualBasic, MSX BASIC and Turing.

Current projects include: - A generic, bolt-on debug shell for quick and dirty testing of class methods. - A set of modules intended to permit the easy implementation of a variety of synthesis and audio processing functions in Perl. - A utility capable of transforming interpreted programs into a dynamically self-decompressing compressed form. - A rather over-engineered dice rolling application for tabletop role playing games. - A script to read through a text dump of a provided tabletop role playing game manual and extract statistical information to be loaded into a database.

All of the above projects are currently implemented in [3].
