Sorry, I haven't been ignoring you, I've been struggling with how to respond. I think for now I will have to leave it at:
(1) since I'm a patent attorney, looking at your code and advising you on its chances of patentability would constitute legal advice and potentially initiate aspects of an attorney-client relationship outside of any retainer agreement, and I'm not going to do that;
(2) in the off chance that you ever do want to try to patent something that involves software, your future patent attorneys will thank you for starting to train yourself now to get out of the habit of making public posts about how ludicrously unpatentable your work is, no matter how much you might think of any current project at the present moment; and
(3) talk to a good patent attorney of your own, one who spends all her time on patent law subject matter, as soon as possible in the process, which will almost certainly be before you think it should be, about anything and everything you might ever possibly want to patent in the future.
