Signingparty - Update
Thanks to a suggestion from commenter Ondra on the LaTeX and some additional spare time I wiped the TODO's from my little program.
signingparty.c
It's been requested to include this in seahorse-plugins, so it will probably make its way there in time for 2.26.
Update: I forgot to mention that a new compile line was needed to add the auto-launching:
signingparty.c

Back from Chicago
I'm back from the URSI GA in Chicago and back in the office. While I was in Chicago, I wrote a little program to auto-generate a bingo board in LaTeX for a little game I dreamt up. While that program will probably not see the light of day, it inspired me to write something else.
I've been frustrated with the user un-friendliness of existing scripts to generate a sheet suitable for use at a key signing party. This frustration led me to write a program that uses libcryptui to select keys for the sheet and inserts them into a table in LaTeX. It's now at a usable point so I thought I would make it available:
signingparty.c
Compile with:
An example of the output is party.tex
And the processed PDF party.pdf
Obligatory Screenshot:
TODO:
* Strip comments from display names (what's in parenthesis normally)
* Fix table grid lines (Help from a LaTeX guru would be appreciated)
* Auto-process LaTeX to PDF (via Rubber)
