About: Macfork can be used to both list and extract resources from a Macintosh resource fork under unix. Currently it supports icon families, pict resources and palettes, but the data from any resource may be extracted to a data file. It was written to port Macintosh icons and pictures over to unix, but has many other potential uses. Changes: Initial release
About: Qscheme is a fast and small implementation of Scheme written in C. QScheme is easy to interface and should be easy to use as an extension language. QScheme currently supports foreign function call and dynamic library. A Perl-like regular expression module is provided as example. QScheme is really fast: benchmarks shows that it is generaly between 2 and 70 times faster than other scheme interpreters. It also features GTK+ bindings, libglade bindings, and native multithread support. Changes: Lots of bugfixes, letrec was broken with some weird side effects, better FFI, more documentation, code cleanup and a process interface.
About: CompuPic is an interactive multimedia file manager and manipulation program which allows you to efficiently view, manage, catalog, thumbnail, and convert over 30 graphics formats. CompuPic is the first consumer-oriented graphics software to be ported to Linux from Windows. Changes: Various bug fixes and feature enchancements.
About: eXtace is a visual sound display/analysis program. It requires Esound (esd) for its audio source. It includes various fast fourier transforms of the audio data in realtime. Its displays include a 3D wireframe flying landscape, a 3D textured flying landscape, a 16-256 channel graphic EQ, three types of scopes, a 3D "spike" flying landscape, and two forms of spectragrams. The 3D traces can be picked up, manipulated, and displayed at nearly any angle. eXtace also features a 3D direction control widget for controlling the angle and speed at which the trace runs away and a gradient/colormap editor for changing the colormap to suit your needs. No OpenGL is required. Changes: Minor bugfixes to color-mapping code. eXtace should no longer duplicate the color shade acros the Graphic EQ, when over 64 bands.
About: GTC is a game programming library for Linux. Rendering is done via a generic client. Multiple clients may connect to a game server, which will automatically keep the 3D scene graph of all clients in sync with the copy on the server. A demonstration space shooter is included. The shooter is written in Python and has less than 200 lines of code. Changes: Loader for .ase (3dsmax) meshes and ppm/pnm textures, "Resource repository" for storing meshes and textures, browser is now completely game independant.
About: SmartEiffel is the GNU Eiffel Compiler. It is intended to be a complete, though small and very fast, Eiffel compiler. The current distribution includes an Eiffel to C compiler, documentation tools, a pretty printer, and various other tools including an Eiffel debugger. It also includes a large library of classes distributed under the terms of the MIT/X Consortium License. Eiffel is an advanced object-oriented programming language that emphasizes the design and construction of high-quality and reusable software.
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: RealTimeBattle is a programming game, in which robots controlled by programs are fighting each other. The goal is to destroy the enemies, using the radar to examine the environment and the cannon to shoot. Changes: This is primarily a bugfix version. There are two new translations available (polish and portuguese), the default prefix for the installation has been changed from /usr to /usr/local, removed bug that appeared with gcc-2.95 and other bugfixes.
About: GTKWave is a fully featured GTK+ v1.2 based wave viewer for Unix and Win32 which can view industry standard VCD/EVCD files as well as Synopsys (EPIC) TimeMill and LXT format files. Changes: Allows fractional page divisors, now supports multilevel logic (01XZ) and have much improved signal management support.
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: Version 1.0 is a culmination of a major rewrite. The dependency on calendar.so has been removed and there is now full support for clients, projects and tasks.
About: divine will use ARP requests to look for hosts that are always up in the networks that you frequently use your laptop in and then set the IP configuration including /etc/resolv.conf and write proxy settings in /etc/proxy. A perl script to edit your netscape 4 preferences is included. You can also run a custom script for each network to edit /etc/printcap or /etc/issue or whatever you feel like. The ARP method is much quicker than the "ping" method that other solutions use. Changes: Changed system() to fork()+execlp() to avoid /bin/sh, no more static paths to ifconfig and route, the interface is no longer in promiscuous mode.
About: ncp can copy files between networked computers and accounts without hassles (nor features like compression and encryption), and you do not even have to name the target machine if it is in the same LAN. npush and npoll can copy files (and pipe data) between machines without having the specify or even know the machine name in advance. Changes: Glibc 2.1 compatibility.
About: Linuxconf is a sophisticated administrative tool. It is both an activator and a configurator, and can manage quite a few system tasks. It has some unique features, like configuration versioning and multiple machine management. It supports multiples languages (French, German, Italian, etc.) and can be administered from ncurses (text), Web, command line, or X (GNOME or wxxt) user interfaces. Changes: Smarter dnsconf updates, /etc/skel for vdomain in mailconf, new module dll versions, more buttons in text mode, Samba netlogon share dialog and name resolve order options, translation updates for French, Swedish and Deutsch, wrong permission settings in /etc/quota.conf fixed, account policies (archive script), signal if anonymous dir is missing in wuftpd.
About: MOSIX is a management system targeted for high performance computing on Linux clusters and multi-cluster organizational grids. In MOSIX, there is no need to modify or link applications with any library, copy files or login to remote nodes, or even assign processes to different nodes. It is all done automatically, similar to a single computer with multiple processors; just fork and forget. Changes: Upgraded to Linux-2.2.12.
About: Gifsicle is a powerful command-line program for manipulating GIF image files. It has good support for transparency and colormap manipulation, simple image transformations (cropping, flipping), and creating, deconstructing, and editing GIF animations. It can also optimize GIF animations for space. Also included is a GIF animation viewer and a program that checks whether two GIFs look the same. Changes: Optimization improvements, and fixed a memory corruption bug.
