LinkControl is an automation application that can be used to control lights, dimmers, motors and other physical devices. This application is essentially a button processing application that needs to be paired with a server component that ultimately controls the physical devices. This application downloads button definitions from the server application and when a button is pressed a button identifier is returned to the server indicating which button was pressed. With that information the server decides the appropriate next step. LinkControl has no knowledge of the overall process as it just handles button definitions and button presses.

The cropper tool from Raketten is a very small tool which solves a big problem. Whenever you take a photo of some rectangular shape, like a box or a book. TRaditional cropping will not give you a good result due to the perspective error. Either you have to accept some air around the box, or you have to accept loosing part of your box. This is where Raketten cropper can help you. It lets you select each of the 4 corners and warp your box to show only the box. The tool does not require an account or any personal information, just install and use.
