About: Zircon is a feature rich IRC client written in the tcl/tk programming language. It provides an easy to use GUI for IRC and is highly configurable. Zircon will run on any system that has a tcl/tk interpeter (i.e. MacOS and Windows as well as UNIX) Changes: Many bug fixes and added features including SOCKS support.
About: cdr stands for CDRip. It is a Perl program that uses dialog to provide an ncurses front end for ripping audio and encoding MP3s. It supports lame, cdparanoia, and CDDB / FreeDDB Changes: This version fixes several bugs as well as adding many new features. A CD RIP option has been added to rip and encode an album in one step. Multiple bitrates for encoding MP3s. Several naming formats to pick from for ripped tracks. Can optionally build a track list file for a ripped album. And now you have a choice between sox or wav2cdr when creating CDR files.
About: Xclasses is a C layout library for the X Window System. All objects (called gadgets) are font sensitive, i.e. their size changes with the size of the used screen font and the size of the window. All this is done by Xclasses itself. The user may choose any kind of font style and size. Changes: Fixes of bugs in font and color handling, added new gadgets, new design of xclock (now looks better in XCclock). Started porting of documentation to StarOffice 5. We are still looking for people to translate the german documentation to english.
About: Jazilla is an ongoing work by a group of Java programmers to create a 100% Java version of the Mozilla browser. It's still a work in progress and so should only be downloaded by developers, but can read a web page from a remote web server and display it. Changes: First usable version complete with installer.
About: MM.MYSQL is a JDBC driver for the MySQL database. It implements all of the JDBC spec that can be implemented for MySQL, and offers high performance and stability. More information is available at the homepage. Changes: Changed all ResultSet fields to Strings, this should allow Unicode to work, but your JVM must be able to convert between the character sets. Changed PreparedStatement.streamToString() to be more efficient. This allows quicker storage of BLOBs. URL parsing is more robust (throws SQL exceptions on errors rather than NullPointerExceptions). PreparedStatement now can convert arbitrary Strings to Time/Date values via setObject().
About: XScreenSaver is the standard screen saver collection shipped on most Linux and Unix systems running the X11 Window System. These screen savers also work on Mac OS (X11 is not required). More than 200 screen savers are included.
About: Wmbattery displays the status of your laptop's battery in a small icon. This includes if it is plugged in, if the battery is charging, how many minutes of battery life remain, battery life remaining (with both a percentage and a graph), and battery status (high - green, low - yellow, or critical - red). Changes: This is the first release.
About: Dali Clock is a digital clock for Mac OS X, the X Window System, and PalmOS devices. When a digit changes, it "melts" into its new shape with color-cycling. Changes: Fixed a bug that caused X errors on some systems with PseudoColor visuals when using the -transparent option, some portability fixes for OpenVMS, added xdaliclock.spec so that everyone can build their RPMs in the same way and a -countdown option.
About: GNU Midnight Commander is a text-mode full-screen file manager. It uses a two panel interface and a subshell for command execution. It includes an internal editor with syntax highlighting and an internal viewer with support for binary files. Also included is Virtual Filesystem (VFS), that allows files on remote systems (e.g. FTP servers) and files inside archives to be manipulated like real files. Changes: Bug fix release with an improved GNOME interface.
About: GNOME is the GNU Network Object Model Environment. This project is building a complete, user-friendly desktop based entirely on free software. This desktop consists of small utilities and larger applications that share a consistent look and feel. It uses the GTK as the GUI toolkit for all GNOME-compliant applications. Changes: The Antialiased engine is now finished and it is included in this release of the code. Lots of bug fixes to the libraries and core applications.
About: Gnumeric is a powerful and easy to use spreadsheet using GNOME. Its goal is to provide a full featured spreadsheet and a smooth migration path for people and organizations currently using proprietary applications. It provides more sheet functions and greatly improved accuracy when compared to Microsoft's Excel. A plugin system lets you extend Gnumeric, adding functions, I/O formats, and real time data capabilities. The existing Python, Guile, and Perl plugins let you define complex functions. Gnumeric is capable of reading and writing MS Excel (XLS and Office Open XML), and reading Lotus, Applix, Quattro Pro, OpenCalc (ODF), XBase, DIF, SYLK, HTML, Psion, MPS, oleo, sc, misc. text formats, and its native XML. It can also generate Latex, HTML, and others. Changes: It is now possible to reference cells across different sheets, the add-comments-to-cell feature is now working and many of the bugs reported with Gnumeric 0.5 have been fixed now.
About: Dave Gnukem is a 2D scrolling platform game, similar to Duke Nukem 1. It includes a level editor. It runs on Linux and Windows, and uses the SDL library. Changes: Level editor now works, basic support for monsters added, level exits now work, some bugfixes and cosmetic additions.
About: Mutt is a small but very powerful text-based MIME mail client. It is highly configurable, and is well-suited to the mail power user with advanced features like key bindings, keyboard macros, mail threading, regular expression searches, and a powerful pattern matching language for selecting groups of messages.
About: GTK, which stands for the Gimp ToolKit, is a library for creating graphical user interfaces. It is designed to be small and efficient, but still flexible enough to allow the programmer freedom in the interfaces created. GTK provides some unique features over standard widget libraries. Changes: Version 1.1.12 adds a korean translation, fixes memory leaks and various other bugs. A list of incompatible changes with GTK 1.0 can be found here.
About: GLib is a library containing many useful C routines for things such as trees, hashes, and lists. GLib was previously distributed with the GTK toolkit, but has been split off as of the developers' version 1.1.0. Changes:
About: Universal Embedded SQL Compiler (UESQLC) is a compiler that provides a common way for accessing heterogeneous databases. UESQLC is based on Structured Query Language (SQL) as a standard for accessing data. This interface provides maximum interoperability, i.e. a single application can access different SQL Database Management Systems (DBMS) through a common set of embedded SQL code (UESQL). This enables a developer to build and distribute a client/server application without targeting a specific DBMS. Changes: This is the initial public version.
About: The Apache JServ is a Java servlet engine, an external process written in Java which runs separate from the web server and handles requests to Java servlets. mod_jserv is an Apache HTTPD module written in C which provides an interface to the Apache JServ engine. Changes: This new generation comes with complete Servlet 2.0 compliance, enhanced security, improved installation and documentation, performance improvements, tons of bug fixes, and much more.
