About: EPIC4 is a new direction in ircII development. It was originally built upon the ircII-2.6 client and has maintained faithfulness to remain current up to the 2.8.2 release. EPIC is somewhat larger than the stock client (24%), but that is mostly because of the multitude of new features, the dual ANSI/K&R compliant function headers, and the large amount of re-written code in an attempt to make ircii faster, more efficient, and more powerful. Changes: see Changelog within file. Get the patch also.
About: XawTV is a simple Xaw-based TV program which uses the bttv driver or video4linux. It also contains various command-line utilities for grabbing images and AVI movies, tuning in TV stations, etc. Changes: 15 bpp problems fixed, NTSC-HRC support added, driver updates (sync up with bttv 0.6.1, msp3400 nicam changes).
About: FreeWRL is a VRML browser for Linux and OS X. It aims to be fully VRML97 compliant, complete with scripting in Perl, Java and Javascript, and EAI. It is written mostly in Perl with some C for library interfaces & rendering, and uses OpenGL (Mesa) for graphics. Changes: Some bugs fixed. New maintainer - John Stewart - CRC Canada
About: Icecast is a streaming media server which currently supports Ogg Vorbis and MP3 audio streams. It can be used to create an Internet radio station or a privately running jukebox and many things in between. It is very versatile in that new formats can be added relatively easily, and it supports open standards for communication and interaction. Changes: Fixes a bug regarding zombie processes, as well as AIX portability issues.
About: Timesheet.php is a Web-based application designed to keep track of the hours worked by multiple people on multiple projects. It allows users to log in and manage the times that they are clocked on or clocked off. It has many features, including user, client, project, and task management; a calendar view of work, grouped by project or all projects; monthly, weekly, or daily views of work; work periods spanning multiple days; automatic calculation of invoices; manual clock-on/clock-off maintenance; administrator views and reporting; timezone adjustment; a simple weekly timesheet entry mode; and LDAP support. Changes: Added multiple project support as well as support for mandatory breaks. Projects allow one user to keep records of working on several different projects at the same time. Also updated administrative functions as well as various bugfixes.
About: fsh is a tool for establishing an ssh tunnel for remote execution of commands without requiring an ssh authentication on every connection. Once the tunnel is established, remote commands can be executed almost instantaneously. This makes systems such as remote cvs over ssh much faster. It includes fcp, an rcp variant that uses fsh. Changes: Version 0.1 is the first public release of fsh. The program works for the author, but has not yet been used by anybody else. Some documentation is included.
About: Xcoral is a multi-window mouse-based text editor for Unix/X11 with syntax highlighting and auto-indentation. A built-in browser enables you to navigate through C functions, C++ and Java classes, methods, files, and attributes. This browser is very fast and self-updates automatically after file modifications. An ANSI C Interpreter (Smac) is also built-in to dynamically extend the editor's facilities (with user functions, keybindings, modes, etc). Changes: This version fixes several bugs and includes GNU autoconf.
About: GMasqdialer provides a GNOME/GTK client for the Masqdialer system. The masqdialer system provides a user-friendly cross-platform method of controlling a masquerade box's modem connection from any computer on a LAN. Changes: Finally using automake, works now also in GNOME panel as well as with plain GTK.
About: ttmkfdir is a tool to create valid and complete fonts.dir files from TrueType fonts. It is very useful when you plan to use a TrueType enabled font server that is based on the X11R6 sample implementation (xfsft for instance). Great care has been taken to correctly identify the encodings that a given TrueType font supports. Changes: First freshmeat announcement.
About: nsListen turns a click on a shoutcast or icecast server link into a playing, streaming mp3. It was written for Netscape (but can probably be adapted to other browsers) and defaults to using mpg123 to play the stream (edit a single line in the perl script to use xmms instead). Changes: This is the initial release.
About: The Apache/Perl integration project brings together the full power of the Perl programming language and the Apache HTTP server. With mod_perl it is possible to write Apache modules entirely in Perl. In addition, the persistent interpreter embedded in the server avoids the overhead of starting an external interpreter and the penalty of Perl start-up time. Changes: Bug fixes and language support improvements.
About: Flwm is an X window manager designed to be user friendly and use the absolute minimum amount of screen real estate. It has no icons, using a pop-up menu to select hidden or new windows, and sideways titlebars. Flwm is also designed to achieve Gnome, KDE, and Motif compatibility simultaneously and has also been tested with many SGI programs that normally require 4DWM. Changes: This version should compile under egcs now. If there is only one desktop the menu acts like the previous version, without any hierarchy.
About: LCDproc is a utility to drive one or more LCD (and LCD-like) devices attached to a host. It is comprised of a server, which uses a modular device driver system to control attached displays, and one or more clients to gather data as appropriate and send screen data to the server. The included client displays a multitude of system statistics (CPU/memory/disk usage, uptime, date and time, temperature, etc.). Multiple clients can connect to the server simultaneously, and clients can set priorities on the screens they provide to influence in what order items are displayed. This facility can also be used to "pop" critical screens (such as an entry from syslog from a log-watching client). All functionality is implemented in userland. Support for many display devices and several platforms (Linux, *BSD, and Solaris at least) is included. Changes: Memory leaks fixed, memory "top" screen (S), titles now autoscroll, removable heartbeat, as well as other misc bugfixes.
About: BANAL is a bookkeeping system that allows you to create and track invoices, clients, projects, timesheets, expenses, suppliers, etc. BANAL is also a client/server application so you can keep one set of books on your system while allowing everyone access. Changes: This release marks a severe change in direction for future development. I've started adding "practice management" features to allow tracking of how profitable, well run and timely projects are performed.
About: Rscript is written in Expect/Tcl and allows you to automate remote logins and execute a list of commands remotely. It is also useful for scheduling tasks using your local cron instead of the remote cron. rscript is able to execute commands as the superuser (using su) as well. It has support for ssh, ssh2, telnet, and ftp protocols as well as optional remote mail notification of all output. A compact Tcl config file parser is included, as well as example files. A TK GUI frontend allows point and click execution of remote scripts and a window for script output. Changes: Now with increased command line option flexibility and a much improved config file parser.
About: gtkali is a Kali client for Linux. It uses both the kalinix library (ala Jay Cotton) and the GTK+ library. Kali is a gaming network that requires a one-time fee for a lifetime membership with unlimited gameplay and chat. Changes: Refixed the alias bug, added status and tool bars, code cleanup, and various other bugfixes.
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: Added teleporters, bananas, title screen image; Some cosmetic additions, bugfixes, structural game-flow improvements, menu improvements, new sprite editor features, full-screen mode in X.
About: TiK is a pure TCL/Tk implementation of AOL Instant Messenger (AIM). It has most of the features the native Win32 and Mac clients have, plus some extras. It includes a graphical buddy list display, full font support, graphical emoticons, away messages, buddy pounce, buddy ticker, IM/Chat capturing, message broadcasting, a GUI preferences system, and much more. TiK's expandable nature allows the addition of new features through packages. Changes: Bug fixes
About: Kover is a WYSIWYG CD cover printer. You have the ability to enter title, contents, set colors for background, text, embed images, and more. You can even stream title and tracks from CDDB into this little app. CDDB access via proxy is supported. Changes: CDDB support, image embedding (center/tile/stretch), status bar for more feedback on actions (essential for CDDB), support for files of "Easy CD Pro 2.0" (autodetection!)
