I was only able to find a couple of programs written in C for this. Here are a couple of links to start you in the right direction:

To compile a c program, do this:
gcc program.c
where program.c is the file that you want to compile.
You'll probably need the build-essential package in ubuntu:
sudo apt-get install build-essential
Remember- make sure to back up any important information before messing with stuff, especially before you use code you find on the internet
