The Better String Library is an abstraction of a string data type which is superior to the C library char buffer string type and C++'s std::string. Among the features achieved are substantial mitigation of buffer overflow/overrun problems and other failures that result from erroneous usage of the common C string library functions, significantly simplified string manipulation, high performance interoperability with other libraries that expect '\0' terminated buffers, high performance common string operations, and functional equivalency with other more modern languages.
Thump (The Unix MP3 Player) is a flexible and modular set of MP3 playing daemons written in Python. The daemons communicate with each other and the rest of the world via XML, and playlist management is handled by a combination of standard file manipulation utilities (such as find) and regular expressions.
