Blob Wars : Metal Blob Solid is a platform game, not unlike those found on the Amiga and SNES. The object of the game is to take on the role of solider Blob, Bob, and play through the various levels and attempt to rescue as many MIA (Missing In Action) Blobs as possible. This is not quite as straight forward as it sounds, since the MIAs will often be not directly reachable and will require some extra thought. Bob also has to contend with environmental hazards, alien invaders and assimilated Blobs.

This is XBattle by Greg Lesher, based on the original by Steve Lehar released in 1991, and including certain enhancements, modifications, and bug fixes suggested by a number of contributors from all over the world. XBattle is a concurrent multi-player game which combines elements of strategy with arcade-like action to capture a wide range of military scenarios. The game is based on X Windows, which you must have installed to run xbattle. Opponents play from separate displays, with commands being executed concurrently -- the players do not take "turns", but rather they all issue their commands simultaneously. There can be any number of players, with each player assigned to a specific team, indicated by marker colors. The game board is a matrix of cells (square, hexes, etc.) that can be occupied by colored troops, with the goal of the game being to eliminate the enemy from the board by attacking cells occupied by enemy troops. A wide variety of command line options (and previously configured game files) provide an abundance of different scenarios and gaming environments. If you have never used xbattle before, read the introduction on the xbattle Web site. To get the feel of the game, you can run the "tutorial1" and "tutorial2" scripts supplied with the game. These start a series of small example games that you can play around with to learn the various options available with the game.

The SciPlot Widget is a widget capable of plotting cartesian or polar graphs, including logarithmic axes in cartesian plots. The widget is subclassed directly from the Core widget class, which means that it does not depend upon any other widget set. It may be freely used with Athena, Motif, or the Open Look/Xview widget sets. Features provided in the widget include automatic scaling, legend drawing, axis labeling, PostScript output, multiple plotted lines, color support, user font specification, dashed lines, symbols drawn at points, logarithmic scales on one or both axes in cartesian plots, and degrees or radians as angles in polar plots.

The modules in the stltools package can read and write STL files, perform 3D coordinate transforms and projections. These modules are used by the following provided scripts; stl2pov: Converts the STL model to a mesh usable with the POV-ray raytracer. stl2ps: Creates a view of the STL model in scalable PostScript. stl2pdf: Creates a view of the STL model as a PDF. Requires graphics/py-cairo. stlinfo: Either displays some information about a STL file or prints it in text format.

The VCG tool reads a textual and readable specification of a graph and visualizes the graph. If not all positions of nodes are fixed, the tool layouts the graph using several heuristics as reducing the number of crossings, minimizing the size of edges, centering of nodes. The specification language of the VCG tool is nearly compatible to GRL, the language of the edge tool, but contains many extensions. The VCG tool allows folding of dynamically or statically specified regions of the graph. It uses colors and runs on X11. (An older version runs on Sunview).

The fonts used by the Hebrew Support of X-Windows & Motif since 1991. 35 pcf files, 8 Type1 files (1 is similar to the proportional Webfont). Already adopted by 8 workstation vendors, dozens of software houses, and most of the X users in Israel.
