This is the Class::Singleton module. A Singleton describes an
object class that can have only one instance in any system. An
example of a Singleton might be a print spooler or system
registry. This module implements a Singleton class from which
other classes can be derived. By itself, the Class::Singleton
module does very little other than manage the instantiation of a
single object. In deriving a class from Class::Singleton, your
module will inherit the Singleton instantiation method and can
implement whatever specific functionality is required.
This module is a compatibility wrapper around Date::Parse.
Provides a tool to process different combinations of dates and zones values.
If a date doesn't contain a timezone suffix, and zone parameter is not set,
then the timezone of the returned DateTime object will be set to the local
timezone. This is consistent with the behavior of Date::Parse.
If no zone is specified and the date string does specify a timezone/offset or
if a zone format can not be parsed by DateTime::TimeZone, the returned
DateTime object will have UTC timezone.
Thot offers the usual functionality of a word processor, but it also
processes the document structure. It includes a large set of advanced
tools, such as a spell checker and an index generator, and it allows to
export documents to common formats like HTML and LaTeX.
This release should be considered as a snapshot of a work in progress. A
large part of the intended features of Thot Editor are implemented, but
some of them are not complete yet and the software is not supposed to be very
robust. The user interface may change and can be improved.

Netrek is a multi-player battle simulation with a Star Trek theme.
As a player, you captain starships to engage enemy vessels, bomb
armies and invade planets in order to expand your team's space empire.
The ultimate goal is to genocide the enemy race, but the carnage of
battles along the way is ruthlessly fast paced and a lot of fun!
It's a team-oriented game with realtime dogfighting but involving a
lot of ongoing strategy. It costs no money to play, there are no ads,
and it's open source.
HTML::TableTiler uses a minimum HTML table as a tile to generate a complete
HTML table from a bidimensional array of data. It can easily produce simple or
complex graphic styled tables with minimum effort and maximum speed.
Think about the table tile as a sort of tile that automatically expands itself
to contain the whole data. You can control the final look of a table by
choosing either the HORIZONTAL and the VERTICAL tiling mode among:
PULL, TILE and TRIM.
The main advantages to use it are:
* automatic table generation
* complex graphic patterns generation without coding
* simple to maintain
Xtestpicture creates a full-screen picture that is intended to help
you adjusting your monitor, resembling the usual TV test pictures.
The picture consists of some geometrical elements, like two crossing
diagonals, a circle, a couple of recatangles. In the center, there's
a rectangle filled with vertical lines, to prove sharpness and video
bandwidth, and a color area to adjust the color saturation and contrast.
That's about all there is to be, doesn't sound very impressive, right?

PerlIO::gzip provides a PerlIO layer that manipulates files in the
format used by the gzip program. Compression and decompression are
implemented, but not together. If you attempt to open a file for
reading and writing the open will fail.

This is Eric A. Welsh's collection of Gravis UltraSound MIDI patches,
configured for use with the TiMidity++ MIDI player. A configuration file
for TiMidity++ to use these patches is also included.
Pipebench shows the current throughput and amount of data going through a
pipe. It can be used to show the progress of a large md5sum process:
cat bigfile | pipebench | md5sum.
