French Numbers

Moving to France made us realise that writing numbers in words is not always as easy as it seems, so we devised a program to convert numbers into French text that (hopefully) follows all the rules. Makes those french cheques a doddle!

The program takes numerical input and displays the number in words.

Brian wrote the original logic in C, as an exercise in learning french, so while learning Cocoa I did the same and put a GUI on it ! 

Native File Dialogs on OS X 

There is a lot of fuss in the java world about file dialogs not looking native enough, so I decided to use the native Cocoa ones in my Java apps for OS X.

I packaged this as an .app but it could quite easily be called through JNI - and the file filtering is fully customisable.
