A quiet workshop for small useful things.

A patient little watcher that overwrites a locked file with your master copy the instant it's free. Point it at a target, walk away, and it lands the swap the moment nothing's holding the file open. Now it also tells you when there's nothing to swap, and remembers the pairs you use every release.

A tabbed drag-and-drop organizer. Make colored panels tied to folders, then drag files onto them to file everything away in one motion.

A lightweight WinForms control that paints a grid of month calendars with its own hand. Drop it on a form, set how many months across and down, and it draws the rest.

A narrow, always-on-top window that turns open orders into one "busy-ness" number per day, so anyone promising a ship date can see at a glance which days are full, which have room, and which aren't working days at all.

Guided pack-list verification for outbound shipping — automatic go/no-go checks up front, live validation on every scan, and one batch submission instead of a trickle of partial updates.

A quick-glance transfer tool for lot- and serial-tracked inventory — scan a trace lot, see every warehouse and location currently holding it with quantities, and move it in one step through VISUAL's own API.

The Sorting Hat lets you drag tabs around to reorder them. That code isn't mine — it's Mick Doherty's, and it's been sitting on his site since long before I needed it.

A note on what this site is for and why it's built the way it is.
