Good program ideas?

Can anyone suggest any good program ideas (resonably large programs - 5000
to 10000 lines)
Maybe the programs that you all have already written

What OS will you be coding it in?

Why would that matter?

A web search for "program ideas" (with Google) yielded some promising
results. Other than that, two ideas would be to reimplement some piece
of software you know or to contribute to one of the many open source
projects out there.

I am currently studying RTEMS and noticed that it does not support named
pipes. Adding that might be a worthy cause and something that I would
really be looking forward to ;-)

Besides that here is an URL that I found some time ago:
http://acm.gui.uva.es/problemset/
maybe it offers some nice suggestions.

Thanks Stephan ... it looks like there's some fun to be had there. The URL
you gave works but has been deprecated so I thought I'd add the new one to
the thread. http://acm.fi.uva.es/problemset/

Depending on what you are interested in, there are always neat projects
of varying sizes with RTEMS. Since 4.0, we have added filesystem
infrastructure and one user has submitted both an ftpd and an httpd
server. Adding the filesystem infrastructure covered a lot of the
POSIX 1003.1b file related API but named pipes still did not get
added. Depending on what you are interested in, there are options
ranging from network servers, POSIX benchmarks, POSIX asynchronize
IO, filesystem (DOS, ISO9660, etc), a new API, or porting a
run-time for one of the GNU languages like Chill to RTEMS. Doing
a BSP for one of the simulators built into gdb (like
the tx39 mips) would be a very doable home/hobby project like would
be very useful.

Thanks for the info. I replaced the old URL with the new one in my URL
archive.
