About me
Welcome, my name Michal Čihař and I live in Prague (Czech republic). I contribute to various free software projects like Debian, phpMyAdmin or Gammu and Wammu. Besides that I've also written some other small tools, which you can find on this website. If you want to know what I'm working on currently, you can check my weblog.

Software
I've created various software during past years, some of these are still alive, while others are not really developed or used anymore:
Gammu, Gammu SMSD, Wammu and python-gammu
Wammu is a program to manage data in your cell phone such as contacts, calendar or messages. It is built on Gammu library, which provides abstraction layer to work with different cell phones from different vendors (including Nokia, Sony-Ericsson, Motorola, Samsung, Siemens, Huawei and others).
phpMyAdmin
phpMyAdmin is a free software tool written in PHP intended to handle the administration of MySQL over the World Wide Web. phpMyAdmin supports a wide range of operations with MySQL. The most frequently used operations are supported by the user interface (managing databases, tables, fields, relations, indexes, users, permissions, etc), while you still have the ability to directly execute any SQL statement.
GePeS
Various GPS and compass based tools for Nokia N9 (Harmattan).
DOF Calc
Simple tool in Qt Quick to calculate depth of field for photographers for Nokia N9 (Harmattan)..
Dictionaries for StarDict
As I like StarDict much, I decided to hack scripts that will convert some useful dictionaries to it's format.
Enca
Enca is an Extremely Naive Charset Analyser. It detects character set and encoding of text files and can also convert them to other encodings using either a built-in converter or external libraries and tools like libiconv, librecode, or cstocs.
