Perl bindings for the SANE (Scanner Access Now Easy) Project. This module allows you to access SANE-compatible scanners in a Perlish and object-oriented way, freeing you from the casting and memory management in C, yet remaining very close in spirit to original API. The Sane module allows a Perl developer to use SANE-compatible scanners. Find out more about SANE at http://www.sane-project.org.

Pixie is a RenderMan like photorealistic renderer. It is being developed in the hope that it will be useful for graphics research and for people who can not afford a commercial renderer. Some of supported features: * All RenderMan 3.4 primitives * Programmable shading (RenderMan Shading Language) * High quality texture/shadow/environment mapping * High dynamic range input/output * Raytracing * Motion blur * Depth of field * Reyes style rendering (very fast) * Occlusion culling * Area light sources * Network parallel rendering * DSO shaders * Global illumination * Photon mapping

Processing is an open source programming language and environment for people who want to program images, animation, and interactions. It is used by students, artists, designers, researchers, and hobbyists for learning, prototyping, and production. It is created to teach fundamentals of computer programming within a visual context and to serve as a software sketchbook and professional production tool. Processing is an alternative to proprietary software tools in the same domain.

Graphite is a project under development within SIL'ss Non-Roman Script Initiative and Language Software Development groups to provide rendering capabilities for complex non-Roman writing systems. The original goal was a system for the Windows platform; the system has also been ported to Linux. Graphite can be used to create "smart fonts" capable of displaying writing systems with various complex behaviors. With respect to the Text Encoding Model, Graphite handles the "Rendering" aspect of writing system implementation.

This is a FreeBSD/SDL port of Tran's timeless demo written in 1994. The demo is like a screen saver, there is stuff warping around onscreen, colors are changing and sprites are moving all over the place. The original conversion from ASM to C for Linux/SDL was written by Dave Ashley. I enabled fullscreen and added music to this version. Hope you like it!

Xcftools is a set of fast command-line tools for extracting information from the Gimp's native file format XCF. The tools are designed to allow efficient use of layered XCF files as sources in a build system that use 'make' and similar tools to manage automatic processing of the graphics. These tools work independently of the Gimp engine and do not require the Gimp to even be installed.

Peps will preprocess encapsulated Postscript files for conversion by Ghostscript into bitmaps. It provides variable levels of resolution and anti-aliasing. You can use it as a stand-alone Postscript-to-bitmap conversion program, or use it on-line to create bitmaps on the fly and send them out to a web browser, even compressing them if the browser supports gzip compression. Xpeps is peps with X11 support.

zgv is an svgalib-based viewer which views GIF, JPEG, PNG, PBM/PGM/PPM, TIFF, BMP, TGA, PCX, mrf, XBM, and XPM files, with a full-screen file selector front-end. It can be used as a simple command, with zgv filename(s), which bypasses the front-end. For more on how zgv works and how to use it, do `info zgv' or `man zgv' once it's installed.

CtrlProxy runs on a computer with a 24/7 internet connection and allows you to transparently connect to IRC from anywhere on the world to your nick. It connects to one or more IRC servers and then allows you to connect to it with any number of clients, providing access to these servers. This is very useful if you don't want to leave IRC but still want to be able to use it from home, school or work.

LostIRC is an IRC client for X, written in C++ using gtkmm as a widget set. The goal of the first stable version, is to make a simple, keyboard controlled IRC application with basic features implemented. Key features: * Simple and minimal client, where the keyboard can be used almost exclusively * Tab-completion for both nicks and commands * Autojoin servers and set which IRC commands to execute on connect * Multi-server support * DCC SEND support
