Just in case somebody has use for them, I have a bunch of small c programs that I use all the time for simple operations. I have programs to bore circular and rectangular pockets, "trepan" out circular and rectangular cutouts in panels without having to chew up the entire interior, do a circular or rectangular pattern of holes, mill threads, peck drill holes, use a file of X-Y coords to make programs to spot drill, drill and tap an irregular array of holes, and so on. As I need particular functions, I write them, like I recently wanted slots with rounded ends. I haven't put them all on my web page yet, but see http://jelinux.pico-systems.com/gcode.html for the ones I have.
