A DBH is a convenient way to associate keys composed by characters to data
records. Any kind of digital information can go into the data record, such
as text, graphic information, database structures, you name it. The idea
behind using a DBH is to get rid of what is known as an index file in the
database world. In the DBH world, the index is built into the file format.
A little tool that will display dBase III files. You can also use
it to convert your old .dbf files for further use with Unix. It should
also work with dBase IV files, but this is mostly untested.
dbview displays the contents of a dBase III or IV database file. This is
done by displaying both the name of the field itself and its value. At
the end of every record a newline is appended.
libnvpair is a name-value pair library originating from Solaris
The nvpair library was released in OpenSolaris and has been extended
by the Illumos project. It exports a set of functions used for managing
name-value pairs. This is a base library for Solaris and its descendents.
However, the kernel-specific code has been removed thus libnvpair is
strictly meant for the userland. The XDR functionality has been masked
for now due to RPC differences between *BSD and Illumos.
XHTML_Table will execute SQL queries and return the results (as a
scalar 'string') wrapped in XHTML tags.
This module was created to fill a need for a quick and easy way to
create 'on the fly' XHTML tables from SQL queries for the purpose
of 'quick and dirty' reporting. It is not intended for serious
production use, although it use is viable for prototyping and just
plain fun.

Queries is a BSD licensed opinionated wrapper of the psycopg2 library for
interacting with PostgreSQL.
The popular psycopg2 package is a full-featured python client. Unfortunately
as a developer, you're often repeating the same steps to get started with
your applications that use it. Queries aims to reduce the complexity of
psycopg2 while adding additional features to make writing PostgreSQL client
applications both fast and easy.
SQL Workbench/J is a free, DBMS-independent, cross-platform SQL
query tool. It is written in Java and should run on any operating
system that provides a Java Runtime Environment.
Its main focus is on running SQL scripts (either interactively or
as a batch) and export/import features. Graphical query building
or more advanced DBA tasks are not the focus and are not planned.
Affiche is a little application that allows people to "stick"
little notes on their computer desktop. It works well under
GNUstep and under Apple Mac OS X.
The goal of this little application is to provide a good example
on how to develop cross-platform applications between GNUstep
and Apple Mac OS X while providing a useful application at the
same time.

This is a port of Taskjuggler, a project management tool for Linux and UNIX
system-based operating systems. Instead of clicking yourself painfully through
hundreds of dialog boxes you specify your Taskjuggler project in a simple text
format. You simply list all your tasks and their dependencies. The information
is sent through Taskjuggler and you will get all sorts of reports in HTML or
XML format.
osc is a command-line client fot openSUSE build service. It is
written in Python, and in addition to the commandline interface it
also provides a Python module, for use by other Python programs.
osc is a subversion-like client. It serves as client for the source
code repository component of the build service, and it is used to
edit metadata or query about build results.
bpython is a fancy interface to the Python interpreter for Unix-like operating
systems. It has the following features:
- In-line syntax highlighting.
- Readline-like autocomplete with suggestions displayed as you type.
- Expected parameter list for any Python function.
- "Rewind" function to pop the last line of code from memory and re-evaluate.
- Send the code you've entered off to a pastebin.
- Save the code you've entered to a file.
- Auto-indentation.
