Nick Sheuko kindly made the following software for me, and I think it will be helpful to others (linked here with his permission):
“This”Script Cleaner” one takes a video as input, does audio-to-text transcription, and then uses GPT-4 to clean it up and take out the filler words to make it read well:

This one takes an archive of your posts in Twitter and resolves the embedded links to make the entire thing local (as html or PDF) so that it’s usable without depending on X’s servers to be up and accessible:

This one: https://github.com/n-shevko/utils has several useful tools in one:
1) The “Margin revisions acceptor” cleans up Tracked Changes in the margins of Word documents, while leaving the body tracks in place:
this:
becomes:
Very handy when you have a ton of changes and you want the document neat without all the noise in the margin but showing where changes were made.
2) Also, there’s “Citations recovering”: a huge time saver where a Word document with Endnote reference codes got munged by someone putting it through Google Docs or Open Office and then entering a bunch of edits you don’t want to lose by reverting to the old version. Give it the before and after document, and it fixes the citations that were broken inside the .docx file!
This one visualizes a sorting process by showing how the data are moved around (see here for one use case); especially useful for hybrid sorts where data is moved by 2 different policies.
