While the U.S. is celebrating Memorial Day, it seems like a good time to share this genealogy tool I made.

It can show the entire family tree for a person in a GEDCOM file (all of their relatives and in-laws) without any crossing lines and with lots of control over the styling.

I couldn't find any other software that does this, except maybe Gramps. Hopefully people will find it useful.

I've just released Plonk, a Spotlight Search style Python interpreter interface for macOS.

As someone who often uses Spotlight Search for quick calculations, I was left yearning for more - a way of quickly running snippets of code and bridge the gap between a calculator and a full on script. Plonk solves that problem by dropping you in to a persistent Python interpreter with a global hotkey. The `%copy` command can be used to dump the previous output to the clipboard, or `%copy ` to dump the output of a specific expression/variable.

Plonk plugs into system Python by default, but is also compatible with virtualenvs or uv projects.

Source and package are available via GitHub: https://github.com/JosephRedfern/plonk
