'usbmuxd' stands for "USB multiplexing daemon". This daemon is in
charge of multiplexing connections over USB to an iPhone or iPod
Touch. To users, it means you can sync your music, contacts, photos,
etc. over USB. To developers, it means you can connect to any
listening localhost socket on the device.
This package contains the usbmuxd communication interface library.
This is a program for translating maidenhead grid squares to and from lat/long.
This is of most use to Amateur Radio operators but may be useful to GPS users.

This program uses error correcting protocols to send/receive
files over a dial-in serial port from a variety of programs
running under PC-DOS, CP/M, Unix, and other operating systems.
lrzsz is derived from the last unrestricted version of Chuck Forsberg's
rzsz package. lrzsz is covered under the GNU copyleft.
LinPsk is a program for operating on digital modes running on Linux.
LinPsk supports BPSK , QPSK and RTTY at the moment.
Main features are:
the simultaneuos decoding of up to four channels.
The different digital modes may be mixed
You can define a trigger on each channel to be notified if a text of your choice is detected.
You can log each received channel at a file.
For easy qso'ing you can define macros and for larger texts to be send you can use two files.
You can view the signal as spectrum or in a waterfall display. Both are scalable in the frequency domain.
At the Moment RTTY only supports 45 baud and 1.5 stopbits.
Amateur Radio DSP utility (SDR)
Linrad receives a signal in digital form by reading a device. Currently Linrad
operates by sampling sound on line-in channel of an audio card. In the future
boards sampling directly at RF frequencies will be available.
LIRC is a package that allows you to decode and send infra-red signals
of many (but not all) commonly used remote controls.
The most important part of LIRC is the lircd daemon that will decode
IR signals received by the device drivers and provide the information
on a socket. It will also accept commands for IR signals to be sent if
the hardware supports this. The second daemon program called lircmd
will connect to lircd and translate the decoded IR signals to mouse
movements. You can e.g. configure X to use your remote control as an
input device.
The user space applications will allow you to control your computer
with your remote control. You can send X events to applications, start
programs and much more on just one button press. The possible
applications are obvious: Infra-red mouse, remote control for your TV
tuner card or CD-ROM, shutdown by remote, program your VCR and/or
satellite tuner with your computer, etc.
lysdr, is a simple SDR program for amateur radio.
Mgetty is a "smart" getty replacement, designed to be used with Hayes
compatible data and data/fax modems.
Mgetty knows about modem initialization, manual modem answering (so your
modem doesn't answer if the machine isn't ready), UUCP locking (so you can
use the same device for dial-in and dial-out).
Mgetty provides very extensive logging facilities.
Sendfax sends the named g3 fax files to the fax machine at "phone number".
The g3 files can be created with pbmtog3(1) or GNU's GhostScript with the
"digifax" driver.
Amateur Radio program for cleaning NASA format keplerian element files.
Minicom is a serial communication program. It is a un*x clone of the
well-known MS-DOS Telix program. It has ANSI color, dialing directory,
dial-a-list, script language, file up/download support, screen capture,
scroll-back, etc.
