Yes, I tend to write small programs like that all the time, it's one of the reasons I like computers, to write programs to do things.
A few I remember:
The FinalKey, hardware device that acts like a keyboard, is a password manager.
OSGG, a lander game I actually want to play.
Chromogen, a bash script that generates lovely static image albums.
"sovs" at work, which fetches a fresh source tree because our procedure requires calling multiple programs with multiple parameters.
Lots of one-off things to fetch something out of some file or do some task on a set of files, for example, I made a utility that let me batch cut video files by giving a list of start-end times.
My memory fails me, and I think it means I should probably be better at keeping those utilities around and organized..
