What is The Webalizer?
----------------------
A fast, free web server log file analysis program. Produces
HTML output for viewing with a web browser. Written in C on
a Linux platform, however designed to be as ANSI/POSIX
compliant as possible so porting to other UNIX platforms should
be painless. Binary distributions for most popular platforms
are available. Features multiple language support, incremental
processing capabilities, reverse DNS lookup support, export via
tab separated ascii files to popular databases and spreadsheets,
and much more. Supports standard CLF and combined logs, as well
as wu-ftpd xferlog and squid proxy logs, which can be either in
standard text format or gzip compressed.

Fontconfig does the following:
* discover new fonts when installed automatically, removing a common source
of configuration problems.
* perform font name substitution, so that appropriate alternative fonts can
be selected if fonts are missing.
* identify the set of fonts required to completely cover a set of languages.
* have GUI configuration tools built as it uses an XML-based configuration
file (though with autodiscovery, we believe this need is minimized).
* efficiently and quickly find the fonts you need among the set of fonts
you have installed, even if you have installed thousands of fonts, while
minimzing memory usage.
* be used in concert with the X Render Extension and FreeType to implement
high quality, anti-aliased and subpixel rendered text on a display.
The MgOpen typefaces are freely available and contain glyphs for viewing
texts in Greek (written in the monotoniko system).
The MgOpen typeface collection is composed of the following typefaces:
- MgOpenCanonica is a serif typeface, based on the design of Times Roman.
- MgOpenCosmetica is a sans-serif typeface, based on the design of Optima.
- MgOpenModata is another sans-serif typeface.
- MgOpenModerna is a sans-serif typeface, based on the design of Helvetica.
Each family contains four fonts, namely all the combinations of regular and
bold weight and upright and italic (or oblique) shape. All the fonts contain
glyphs for the latin and greek alphabets (using the monotoniko system), while
the fonts of the Canonica family also contain all the glyphs necessary for
viewing Greek texts written in the polytoniko system. All the fonts use the
Unicode encoding for characters and are in the TrueType format.
Sawfish is an extensible window manager using a Lisp-based scripting
language. Its policy is very minimal compared to most window managers.
Its aim is simply to manage windows in the most flexible and attractive
manner possible. All high-level WM functions are implemented in Lisp
for future extensibility or redefinition.
These are some of the features that set Sawfish apart from other window
managers:
* Powerful key-binding: Virtually every functionality provided by Sawfish
can be bound to keys (or mouse buttons).
* Event hooking: For many events (moving windows etc.) you can customize
the way Sawfish will respond.
* Window matching: When windows are created you can match them to a set
of rules and automatically perform actions on them.
* Flexible theming: Sawfish allows for very different themes to be created
and a variety of third-party themes is readily available
Spectrwm (previously known as scrotwm) is a small dynamic tiling window
manager for X11. It tries to stay out of the way so that valuable screen
real estate can be used for much more important stuff. It has sane
defaults and does not require one to learn a language to do any
configuration. It was written by hackers for hackers and it strives to be
small, compact and fast.
It was largely inspired by xmonad and dwm. Both are fine products but suffer
from things like: crazy-unportable-language-syndrome, silly defaults,
asymmetrical window layout, "how hard can it be?" and good old NIH.
Nevertheless dwm was a phenomenal resource and many good ideas and code was
borrowed from it. On the other hand xmonad has great defaults, key bindings
and xinerama support but is crippled by not being written in C.
xclip is a command line utility that is designed to run on any system with an
X11 implementation. It provides an interface to X selections ("the clipboard")
from the command line. It can read data from standard in or a file and place it
in an X selection for pasting into other X applications. xclip can also print
an X selection to standard out, which can then be redirected to a file or
another program.
FEATURES
========
* Reads data piped to standard in or files given as arguments
* Prints contents of selection to standard out
* Accesses the XA_PRIMARY, XA_SECONDARY or XA_CLIPBOARD selection
* Supports the INCR mechanism for large transfers
* Connects to the X display in $DISPLAY, or specified with -display host:0
* Waits for selection requests in the background
xlock locks the X server till the user enters their pass-
word at the keyboard. While xlock is running, all new
server connections are refused. The screen saver is disabled.
The mouse cursor is turned off. The screen is blanked and a
changing pattern is put on the screen. If a key or a mouse
button is pressed then the user is prompted for the password
of the user who started xlock.
If the correct password is typed, then the screen is
unlocked and the X server is restored. When typing the
password Control-U and Control-H are active as kill and
erase respectively. To return to the locked screen, click
in the small icon version of the changing pattern.
This module is designed to provide an extremely lightweight way to parse
moderately complex configuration files. As such, it exports a single
function - fastconfig() - and does not provide any OO access methods.
Still, it is fairly full-featured.
Here's how it works:
%cf = fastconfig($file, $delim);
Basically, the fastconfig() function returns a hash of keys and values
based on the directives in your configuration file. By default, directives
and values are separated by whitespace in the config file, but this can be
easily changed with the delimiter argument (see below).
When the configuration file is read, its modification time is first
checked and the results cached. On each call to fastconfig(), if the
config file has been changed, then the file is reread. Otherwise, the
cached results are returned automatically. This makes this module great
for mod_perl modules and scripts, one of the primary reasons I wrote it.
Simply include this at the top of your script or inside of your
constructor function:
my %cf = fastconfig('/path/to/config/file.conf');
If the file argument is omitted, then fastconfig() looks for a file named
$0.conf in the ../etc directory relative to the executable. For example,
if you ran:
/usr/local/bin/myapp
Then fastconfig() will automatically look for:
/usr/local/etc/myapp.conf
This is great if you're really lazy and always in a hurry, like I am.
If this doesn't work for you, simply supply a filename manually. Note that
filename generation does not work in mod_perl, so you'll need to supply a
filename manually.
Hastymail2 is a full featured IMAP/SMTP client written in PHP. Our goal is to
create a fast, secure, compliant web mail client that has great usability.
Hastymail2 is much more lightweight than most popular web based mail
applications but still maintains a competitive feature set. The project
originated as Hastymail in 2002, then was nearly completely rewritten as
Hastymail2 starting in January of 2008. We are very near our first stable
release of the second generation of Hastymail and development continues to be
active.

EFlite is a speech server for Emacspeak and other screen readers that allows
them to interface with Festival Lite, a free text-to-speech engine developed at
the CMU Speech Center as an off-shoot of Festival. EFlite is still in beta,
but I have been using it successfully with Yasr to get speech on my notebook
under Linux without having to lug my Speak-out around. It uses Festival Lite's
code to interface with the sound driver and, therefore, should work with some
versions of ALSA, but I have only tested it with the OSS sound drivers so far.
