Tcl'er since ~1994 (my boss put me into a group to develop a SW management tool based on Tcl/Tk).
Until now I wrote a lot of of Tcl/Tk software mostly used by German companies.

07 jan 2005: since end of 2004 I work for http://www.infineon.com/ doing support and programming for the middleware group. my work including support for:
This is just a subset (I can not remember all the projects)
Banking
I. a couple of tools used to setup and maintain SW known as Kondor (by Reuters). Kondor is used as back-office SW mostly for money exchange and money-market deals. I wrote a plug in technology to extend the default features of "Kondor" with special customer reports (all together ~ 20 independent projects)
II. a couple of tools used to setup and maintain SW known as Xetra and Eurex (by german stock exchange). Xetra and Eurex is SW for management of Stock and Option Market issues (something like Ebay for the big guys) (all together ~ 10 independent projects)
III. a tool called sophis to calculate P&L on stock and option market deals
Telecommunication
I. a couple of tools used to setup and maintain SW known as Ars (by Remedy). This SW is used to create 3-tier database based Applications. The GUI is a generic tool called Remedy User and acts like a Web-Browser for Ars special data. This mean all the application-logic is placed in the server and no application specific client-setup is necessary. First I designed a Tcl-Extension to interact with the Ars-Api. With this extension I wrote a lot of tools to do near everything with Ars and the applications run on it. (all together ~ 30 independent projects)
Industry
I. At the end of the last millennium I had the bad idea to write a compiler for Tcl. I called this SW just Compiler and it was used to compile tcl-scripts into native binaries.
This works very well on the different kinds of Unix's, Mac Os and Windows.
The benefits are speed (significant faster), security (nobody can read your code) and ease (putting everything together). But I call this project useless because I never got my investment back. The only things I learned were:
II. libmsgque a tool for connecting something together. This is a very generic description but it's just a generic tool. This tool is used to connect very different software (mostly a legacy application) with other software (mostly something useful or something hype). Connecting means the connected SW acts like one SW but with the benefit of independent roots.
III. I call myself 100% Unix and this means in 2007 100% (Linux, SunSolaris, ..), 100% (MacOsX) and later also 100% Windows (win32, together withe the libmsgque project). The later package I discovered this year (2004) to finally close my last OS world gap.
