Acme::Time::Baby - tell time little children can understand.

SYNOPSIS

use Acme::Time::Baby;
print babytime; # Prints current time.

use Acme::Time::Baby language => du;
print babytime "10:15"; # Prints a quarter past ten in a way
# little Dutch children can understand.

Using this module gives you the function babytime, which will return the time in the form The big hand is on the ten and the little hand is on the three. If no argument to babytime is given, the current time is used, otherwise a time of the form hh:mm can be passed. Both 12 and 24 hour clocks are supported.

When using the module, various options can be given. The following options can be passed:

language LANG

The language the time should be told in. The following languages are currently supported:

en English (this is the default)
br Brazilian Portuguese.
ceb Cebuano (Filipine dialect)
de German.
de_ch Swiss German.
du Dutch.
es Spanish.
fr French.
it Italian.
no Norwegian.
se Swedish.
swedish chef Swedish Chef (from the Muppets).
warez l44+.

If no language argument is given, English is used.
Note that some languages use accented letters. The returned sentences are correct for an ISO 8859-1 platform.

format STRING

This is the format used to represent the time. It will be passed to sprintf, and it should have two %s formatting codes. The other two arguments to sprintf are the position of the minute hand (the big hand) and the hour hand (the little hand). If you have perl 5.8 or above, you could use %2$s and %1$s to reverse the order.

number ARRAYREF

An array with the names of the numbers one to twelve, to be used in the formatted time.

noimport EXPR

By default, the sub babytime will be exported to the calling package. If for some reason the calling package does not want to import the sub, there are two ways to prevent this. Either use use Acme::Time::Baby (), which will prevent Acme::Time::Baby::import to be called, or pass noimport followed by a true value as arguments to the use statement.

Since I am the person who manages the money for our house, I need an efficient way to keep track of our expenses and an easy way to calculate who owes what to whom at the end of the month. There are lots of good free software utilities for managing money like GnuCash, KMyMoney and the wonderful Gnumeric spreadsheet. I had been using Gnumeric to manage the money for the last 8 months, but now that we have some people staying at the house for just the summer, and other leaving and coming back in September, the spreadsheet was not able to adjust to these irregular circumstances.

The reason I decided to write my own application from scratch instead of using an already existing money management application was because my problem is multi-person orientation and most (if not all) of the money management programs I have tried are single-person oriented. For example GnuCash will let you setup accounts that show you all the money moving to and from a single person. But in my house things like food are paid by any person and shared by every other person. Thus to efficiently and easily calculate who owes how much, it must take into account the fact that one pizza may be paid for by one person, but it was eaten by 4 people. Also I dont want to have to divide up the amounts myself and put it into GnuCash with multiple accounts, because then I might as well be doing it on paper.

I could have spent my time learning to make an already existing application do exactly what I want; and I probably would have found something pretty close. But I decided that it would be faster to just program it from scratch and then I would be sure I would get exactly what I wanted. I think I was right; it took less then 2 weeks to finished writing this program.

The program is currently called Adventure Money, but if anyone can think of a better name for it let me know and Ill gladly change it.

When you first launch the program you will see it has five views, all of which can be seen in the screenshots below.

Gourmet Recipe Manager is a simple but powerful recipe-managing application. Gourmet is intended for the GNOME desktop environment, but works on any platform that gtk supports, including windows.
Gourmet allows you to collect, search and organize your recipes, and to automatically generate shopping lists from your collection. Take a look at the screenshots for a sense of how this works.
Gourmet Recipe Manager is free software. If you want to contribute to the project and youre a python programmer, please take a look at the source code and start hacking! If you would like to use Gourmet in a language other than English, you can help translate gourmet using the rosetta web-based tool.
Simple Search
Screenshot of Search viewA simple index view allows you to look at all your recipes as a list and quickly search through them by ingredient, title, category, cuisine, rating, or instructions. Searching happens as you type to save you keystrokes, and multiple kinds of searches can easily be combined from this same view (so you can search for salads (category) with walnuts (ingredient) without having to open a separate dialog. You can easily sort recipes by clicking on the column youd like to sort by. Furthermore, for advanced users, you can search using regular expressions.
Recipe Editor
Screenshot of Search viewA recipe card view allows editing and entering individual recipes easily. It also instantly multiplies ingredient amounts if you need to multiply or divide a recipe, and even adjusts units to keep them as readable as possible (so that 2 tbs. x 4 displays as 1/2 cup). Gourmet aims to make entering ingredients as intuitive and painless as possible, while still allowing for powerful features. Major Features:
A keyed ingredient list which allows searches and shopping-list generation to understand synonyms (like aubergine and eggplant) and ignore ingredient descriptions (i.e. to treat "tomatoes, finely chopped" as "tomatoes" for the purpose of searching and generating shopping lists.
An intuitive spreadsheet-like editing interface
An alternative, fast form-like ingredient entering interface (which allows you to easily type ingredient lists without looking at the screen.
Drag-n-drop support for importing ingredient lists from your web browser or other application.
Support for pasting ingredient lists in from your clipboard.
Support for grouping ingredients within a recipe.
Support for calling another recipe as an ingredient.(Note: this allows you to use a recipe as a menu!)
Support for optional ingredients.
In addition to ingredients and instructions, you can enter information about categories, cuisines, and ratings that you can later use to search for recipes. In each case, Gourmet allows you a drop down menu of standard categories and categories youve used in the past, but also allows you to enter any custom categories you like.
You can also add images to your recipe for an attractive display. Thumbnails will be displayed in the recipe index. Currently, only HTML export supports images.
Import and Export
Gourmet includes simple and powerful import and export filters for a number of formats, including the two most common recipe formats on the web (mealmaster and mastercook).
Gourmet can import the following kinds of files:
Mealmaster Files
MasterCook text files
MasterCook XML files
Gourmet XML files
A number of popular recipe websites, such as epicurious and recipezaar
Gourmet also can import ingredient lists from a regular plain text list, which can be imported from a file, pasted from the clipboard or dragged onto the editing view.
Gourmet can export the following kinds of files:
Mealmaster files
Rich Text Format
Plain Text
Recipe Web Pages
Gourmet XML files
On GNU/Linux systems, gourmet can also export PDF or postscript files via its printing interface.
Gourmet aims to import and export as many common formats as possible. If you have a format youd like to import, please submit a feature request, or, if youre a programmer, go ahead and start writing the filter yourself!
Shopping List Manager
Screenshot of Shopping List ViewGourmet allows you to automatically generate shopping list from your recipes. You can easily multiply recipes when you add them to adjust for the number of people youre cooking for. If the units are convertable, different units used in different recipes will be added up correctly on your shoppings list (Gourmet even knows the density of some common foods to allow volume-to-weight conversions!). If Gourmet cant convert your units, the shopping list will simply display both units -- for example, the screenshot shows both tsp. and cloves of garlic, since these units cant be sensibly combined.
If you already have an item that appears on your shopping list, you can drag it into your "pantry" so it wont be included! Items added to your pantry will be remembered in the future (so you dont have to manually remove items like "water" from your shopping list every time a recipe calls for it). However, since the pantry list is shown next to the shopping list, you will always have a list at hand of all the ingredients called for by your recipes. (You can drag an item back from the pantry to the shopping list if youve run out.)
The shopping list is also automatically sorted into categories. Gourmet knows the basic categories of a number of foods (produce, meat, fish), and you can create whatever categories are convenient for your own shopping -- I use it for sorting out the basic sections and aisles of my local grocery store and those items that I get from specialty stores. You can set up shopping categories as you enter recipes, or you can move ingredients around within the shopping list view by drag and dropping or using a popup menu.
Main features:
- Simple searching and sorting
- Easy recipe editing
- Import and export from various formats
- A shopping list creator and organizer

Housekeeper helps you keeping track of any items (like food or drugs) in your household.

You can specify expiry dates so you always have an overview of what you should use or rebuy in the near future. Also, shopping lists can easily be created an exported.
