Vim is a highly configurable text editor built to enable efficient text editing. It is an improved version of the vi editor distributed with most UNIX systems. Vim is often called a "programmer's editor," and so useful for programming that many consider it an entire IDE. It's not just for programmers, though. Vim is perfect for all kinds of text editing, from composing email to editing configuration files. Despite what the above comic suggests, Vim can be configured to work in a very simple (Notepad-like) way, called evim or Easy Vim.

Have you ever thought Tetris(R) was evil because it wouldn't send you that straight "I" brick you needed in order to clear four rows at the same time? Well Tetris(R) probably isn't evil, but Bastet certainly is. Bastet stands for "bastard tetris", and is a simple ncurses-based Tetris(R) clone for Linux. Unlike normal Tetris(R), however, Bastet does not choose your next brick at random. Instead, Bastet uses a special algorithm designed to choose the worst brick possible. As you can imagine, playing Bastet can be a very frustrating experience!

Anki is a program designed to help you remember facts (such as words and phrases in a foreign language) as easily, quickly and efficiently as possible. To do this, it tracks how well you remember each fact, and uses that information to optimally schedule review times. With a minimal amount of effort, you can greatly increase the amount of material you remember, making study more productive, and more fun. While Anki can be used for studying anything, it also ships with special features designed to make studying Japanese and English easier: integrated dictionary lookups, missing kanji reports, and more. Sample decks are also provided for Russian.

WHAT IS TKSOL ------------- TkSol is a version of the card game solitaire written with the Tcl/Tk language. A color monitor is highly recommended, especially if you want to get addicted to the game, as trying to see which card is black and which is red under monochrome can be rather eye soring :(. TkSol comes with a set of cardfront [faceup card] bitmaps created by Joseph L. Traub (see cardbitmaps/copyright.h). An initial set of cardback [facedown card] bitmaps was hacked up by James da Silva

If you do well enough, there are six extra minigames that can be unlocked as well as a new game mode designed to keep you playing and enjoying your favourite games even longer.

Chart::Clicker aims to be a powerful, extensible charting package that creates really pretty output. Clicker leverages the power of Cairo to create snazzy 2D graphics easily and quickly. At it's core Clicker is more of a toolkit for creating charts. It's interface is a bit more complex because making pretty charts requires attention and care. Some fine defaults are established to make getting started easier, but to really unleash the potential of Clicker you must roll up your sleeves and build things by hand.

This module is an attempt to build a general purpose graphing module that is easily modified and expanded. I borrowed most of the API from Martien Verbruggen's GIFgraph module. I liked most of GIFgraph, but I thought it was to difficult to modify, and it was missing a few things that I needed, most notably legends. So I decided to write a new module from scratch, and I've designed it from the bottom up to be easy to modify. Like GIFgraph, Chart::* uses Lincoln Stein's GD module for all of its graphics primitives calls.

BitchX is an IRC (Internet Relay Chat) client by Colten Edwards aka panasync@EFnet, it is based on its predecessors ircII and Epic. BitchX was originally started as a script by Trench and HappyCrappy for the popular Unix IRC client ircII. Around Christmas of 1994 the script was patched directly into the client by Colten Edwards.

It is highly customizable and capable of running scripts, so it can be used as an IRC bot too.
