About: XSane is a GTK-based X11 frontend for SANE. It works either standalone or as a gimp plugin. It is an alternative to xscanimage. Changes: Bugfixes, rotate support, and memory allocation routine improvements/fixes.
About: pftp allows you to send and receive files and directories recursively, send and receive standard input and ouput, filter your connection, set the net buffer size, set the bandwidth, send UDP datagrams unicasted, broadcasted, and multicasted (which is meant for AUDIO and VIDEO streaming), send data to another user and manage that data, perform a network test based on either UDP or TCP, and use optimized buffers for your Gigabit Ethernet links. pftp can start from command line, as a daemon, or by inetd. All features are supported for IPv4 and IPv6. Changes: Some minor bugfixes, a new option for optimized file transfer over Gigabit Ethernet, and a port of pftp to NT 4.0 using the cygwin package.
About: Site Studio is an online template-based Web site creation tool. It's easy to use for the beginner, and yet featured enough for the professional Web developer. Changes: A fix for a serious caching bug that prevented pages from being properly removed from a Web site, more functionality for automatic thumbnail generation for all user images, a new option to save/load snapshots of a Web site in progress (ala video games), a number of interface element tweaks, optional pop-up window functionality in edit mode, and improvements to installation scripts for demo downloads on both Unix and NT.
About: MySQL is a widely used and fast SQL database server. It is a client/server implementation that consists of a server daemon (mysqld) and many different client programs/libraries.
About: SourceForge is an online Web application to assist in the development of Open Source Software by offering free hosting. It currently includes Bugtracking, Project Management, Forums, Mailing Lists, Surveys, Software Map, File Releases, Top Projects, Site Docs, Project News, Site News, Snippet Library, Registration System, and Individual Account Maintenence. Changes: Initial public release.
About: abcde is a frontend to cdparanoia, wget, cd-discid, id3, and your favorite Ogg Vorbis (the default), MP3, FLAC, Ogg Speex, or MPP (Musepack) encoder. It grabs an entire CD and converts each track to the desired format, then comments or ID3-tags each file, all with one command. It supports multiple output in a single CD read, the creation of a single track from a CD, resume operation, CD concatenation, volume normalization, gapless encoding (with LAME), parallelization, SMP, proxies, customizable filename organization and munging, playlist generation, distributed encoding via distmp3, and more. Changes: Proper handling of double-quotes in Artist and Album data.
About: VoidPOP3 is a POP3 server designed to have many builtin features, while fitting in the smallest space possible. Changes: Bugfixes for libraries and Microsoft Outlook compatibility.
About: WebCalendar is a Web-based calendar application that can be configured as a single-user calendar, a multi-user calendar for groups of users, or as an event calendar viewable by visitors. WebCalendar requires a database such as MySQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL, MS SQL Server, ODBC, or Interbase. Features include email reminders, iCal/vCal import/export, remote subscriptions for Sunbird or Apple iCal, LDAP and NIS support, and translations for 29 languages. Changes: Viewing other user's calendar, check for scheduling conflicts, better HTML layout via CSS, optional event approval, navigation changes, and localization of dates.
About: Log4j is a logging package written in Java. Log4j allows you to log to a file, a java.io.Writer, a remote server, or a syslog daemon. The package is designed so that log statements can remain in shipped code without incurring a high performance cost. One distinctive feature of log4j is the notion of hierarchical loggers. Using hierarchical loggers, it is possible to select (at runtime) which log statements are output at arbitrary granularity. Users can choose to implement their own log formats and output strategies. Changes: Logging to a syslog daemon, and the user can choose the log target, e.g. a file or syslog daemon, at run-time.
About: XRally is a clone of the Rally X arcade game. In Rally X, you control a blue car which has to run through a maze-like level collecting flags and avoiding colliding with enemy (red) cars. In order to protect itself, the blue car can discharge clouds of smoke which stun the enemy cars for a while. The enemy cars can also crash into each other, what gives you some extra time. One of the main features of XRally is that it is fully customizable. You can create custom tilesets and levels and load them at run time, changing the entire look of the game. (You could, for instance, create a water tileset, using boats instead of cars.) Changes: Initial freshmeat announcement.
About: Yadex is a Doom/Doom II/Heretic level (wad) editor for X. It is available under the terms of the GNU GPL. Changes: A new patch viewer, support for multiple versions of Yadex installed simultaneously, custom patches between PP_START/PP_END, /usr/share/man, Solaris and German edition of Doom II, and the configuration files and game definition files have moved.
About: pydf displays the amount of used and available space on your filesystems, just like df, but in colours. The output format is completely customizable. Changes: A workaround for broken Python on RedHat now really works.
About: pngcrush is an excellent batch-mode compression utility for PNG images. Depending on the application that created the original PNGs, it can improve the file size anywhere from a few percent to 40% or more (completely losslessly). The utility also allows specified PNG chunks (e.g. text comments) to be inserted or deleted, and it can fix incorrect gamma info written by Photoshop 5.0 as well as the erroneous iCCP chunk written by Photoshop 5.5. Changes: Version 1.3.4 prevents pngcrush from overwriting the input file.
About: pat2pdf automatically fetches patent TIFF images from the USPTO database and converts them into a single PDF file using libtiff and GhostScript. Changes: Initial freshmeat announcement.
About: PyBLADE is a module to allow BLADE pages to be created in Python. Changes: Initial freshmeat announcement; new BLADE object creation functions/methods, and the new libblade c functions are now accessable.
About: OpenNap is an open source Napster-like server. Napster is a protocol for sharing multimedia files in a distributed fashion. The server acts as a search engine and broker for direct file transfers between clients. Group and private chat similar to IRC is also provided. OpenNap extends the Napster protocol to allow sharing of any media type and the ability to link servers together. Changes: Initial freshmeat announcement.
About: The Cyrus SASL library is a generic library for easy integration of secure network authentication to any client or server application. It supports authentication via standard plaintext methods as well as CRAM-MD5 and DIGEST-MD5 shared secret methods and KERBEROS_V4 and GSSAPI Kerberos methods. The SASL protocol framework is used by SMTP, IMAP, ACAP, LDAP, and other standard protocols. Changes: Bugfixes (especially in the handling on external layers) and compilation fixes, and the addition of unsupported LOGIN plugin.
About: QGEO provides Linux users with a tool that can read and display CDs from the National Geographic Interactive collections. CDs are automatically mounted and can be ejected and new ones inserted without the fuss of the mount command. Changes: Initial release.
About: Virtfs is a Perl script which aids in creating virtual servers (including setting up your virtual servers for most services, such as FTP, SMTP, and IMAP/POP Mail) and is highly configurable, fast, and easy to use. In addition, Virtfs can also be used as a system administration tool for your virtual servers. Changes: An important bugfix for a configuration error that caused virtfs to complain of an error when it first started up, in 0.20. Upgrade recommended.
Tip: Tired of seeing a lot of software not of the slightest interest to you? Get a freshmeat user account with full filtering capabilities. Best of all: It's free! |
